An InterestlDgf Harvest Scene. The particulars of quite a harvest scene whidi occured near Davisburg is told by the Holly Advertiser. A young lady from that beautiful burg was spend- ing a few days on the farm enjoying the much needed(?) pure country air, and never having seen a binding harvester, wended her way towards the field. She wore a "Mother Hubbard" which was not belted down, and while standing near the machine the horses became frightened at the flying "Mother Hub- bard" and started to run, the young lady fell from the table and was carried up with the grain: and being about the size of a bundle she came through with a neat Uttle string around her waist. One of the harvest hands caught holt of her, after the machine had "kicked" her out, and stood her up. At the last re- ports she was convalescent.
