HOBART TOWN AND THE SOUTH.
NARROW ESCAPE — On Saturday last, as Fred-
erick Synnot, Esq., was driving into Bothwell in
his gig, he caught up to Mr. Brown's cart in the
Shannon Lane, about a quarter of a mile from the
township, and the horse which Mr Synnot was
driving being a young one and not thoroughly
broken in, shied and refused to pass the cart,
whereupon that gentleman "Just touched him
with the whip'" when he immediately, set to to
kick, but there being a kicking strap, no damage
was done with his heels. The animal, however,
appeared determined not to be beaten,so he then
reared straight up, and came down upon his head,
thereby breaking both shafts, and pitching Mr.
Synnot out of the gig head first, within a foot of
the post and rail fence; fortunately he was not
much hurt, his black beaver most probably saving
his head. The horse then got up and made a
desperate rush at the fence, which he cleared and
then fell again when he was secured by one of Mr.
Synnot's men who had come down from the
Shannon with him n horseback. In leaping the
fence the horse disentangled himself from his
harness, and broke both shafts close off the body
of the gig.— Mercury
