This Day in History: 1893-07-21
While Mrs. Birch was shopping at Eisenhauer’s store her daughter was left in the cart. Suddenly the pony bolted and started home toward Mahwah at a high rate of speed. The cart almost overturned at Pulis’ Corner but the girl kept her wits and kept the cart on the road. Mr. Robert Fisher succeeded in halting the animal and Miss Birch drove home without suffering any injury. (Bristow)
