Hurt in Runaway in Davenport Neighbor Life

A Mississippi River town section reports a runaway accident injuring the early son of Mrs Lawlor during a family outing Saturday afternoon. The boy suffered head injuries and internal damage after the horse and buggy slipped near Kool grocery and a local shoe shop, with local firms Lage & Waters Buy Store and Richards Waters Abil Hornan Co noted among nearby contributors. The event prompted a community-wide show at several local venues, including B.A. Pulman and the academy, with plans for a graduation and various exhibits. Obscure details note bankruptcy filings for Frank Nadler and an obituary for Philip and Jacob Soltier in Miles City and Davenport.
