Mrs. Joe Vermillion who formerly made her home on a farm south of Monett, was killed last Thursday in a runaway near Seneca.

She was driving to town in a buggy alone when her horse became frightened at some refuse piled beside the road and backed the buggy over an embankment. When found, Mrs. Vermillion was pinned under the horse, which had fallen and when she was taken out she had been dead for sometime. Pierce City Leader
