Miss Sadie Kent of Middlebury previously had been chased by the animal when it broke the rope by which, Carr had led it to town. The cow became unruly at Cornwall Saturday night and knocked down William Hudson, who was severely bruised. Carr then brousht the animal to Middlebury with the intention of putting it in the cattle yard-there. When nearing the yard the cow broke away and chased Miss Ken for some distance while Carr tried to head it off. The cow then suddenly turned on Carr striking him with its head in the right side and legs He was knocked down and trampled about the chest and abdomen and arms before Donnelly came up and roped the animal after a struggle.

The cow was then led to a shed. Carr was taken to his home at Cornwall Sunday night. He is pain-fully injured, but will recover.
