Wm. Eggebrecht met with a severe injury last Sunday morning while leading his horses to water.

The horses were jumping and frisking at one end of the halter while William was walking along, sedately, at the other end. One of the horses kicked, striking Will a square blow on the chin, with a well shod hoof.

The blow broke or splintered the lower jaw and knocked out several teeth, one of the shoe calks cutting completely through the under lip.

The blow was a bad one and will necessitate the purchase f a few patent store teeth. We hope to Will up and about again in a short time.
