Fortunately, Ineke Dauton was there to rustle up the horses, take control of the leader of the pack and guide them all to the safety of a fenced-in pasture.

"The police came out, but they really didn't know what to do," said Mrs. Dauton. She and her husband, Lou Dauton, run the Circle Ranch, 615 Old State Road in west St. Louis County. She said one officer asked her, "Aren't horses just like dogs? Won't they go back to their own pastures" if you leave them alone? "I told him that no, horses aren't that smart," Mrs.

Dauton said. The nine horses a Morgan, a paint and seven others of mixed breed belonged to a nearby ranch. Dauton said the horses had slipped through a hole in a fence. Mrs. Dauton said a neighbor had called her home about noon Thursday and had told her that the Dautons' horses were grazing in her yard.

Mrs. Dauton walked outside expecting to see one or two of the three horses that board at their ranch. Instead, she saw nine enjoying the grass along Old State Road and in her neighbor' yards. "They were running up and down Old State Road, and It would have been very easy for them to get hit by a car," she said. Police officer Vince Ross of the county's 5th District admitted that he and fellow office Kevin Cavanaugh "don't know a thing about horses." He said he was thankful Mrs.

Dauton was there to handle the animals. "We get those kind of calls all the time out that way, but never for that many," Ross said. He said he and Cavanaugh had stopped at several residences along Old State Road to see if anyone had lost the horses. But no one claimed them, hesald.

The suit was filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in St. Louis. Faulkenberry's suit claims that Dennis Kehm, the prosecutor, knew the charges were groundless when he issued a second-degree assault warrant against Faulkenberry on Jan'. 18, 1983.

Faulkenberry was accused of trying to hit his son, David Faulkenberry, with a fireplace poker. The charges were later dismissed. But Faulkenberry was convicted of assaulting his former wife, Elizabeth Faulkenberry, in the same incident. Mrs. Faulkenberry is an associate judge of the administrative county court.

The suit says Kehm pursued the charges involving Faulkenberry's son i even though the younger Faulkenberry "indicated at the outset that no assault against him had occurred." Kehm misrepresented several facts about the case to the Jefferson County Circit court and to the public, the suit says, and helped to conceal evidence favorable to Faulkenberry. 1 1 0 StAJH.
