On Monday afternoon Mrs. John Roe met with an accident which was a narrow escape from tragical. She was driving to Courtenay, and when at:the foot of the hi.il beyond . ^‘Johannesburg' met a hay wagon coming this way. While endeavoring to pass :t the wheel of her cart struck a log lying at the edge of the road, which was unboserved, throwing her out. In some way she became entangled with ihe reins, and was dragged quite a distance. The horse went on and Mrs.Roe, recovering herself, though somewhat bruised, walked towards Courtenay until she was met b friends who had returned with her rig.
