Jas. McIlrath met with a what might have been a more serious accident one day last week. On going into the hog lot, he was attacked by his large male hog and not until he had thrown him to the ground did he succeed in getting away from him. The animal made a large and ugly wound in his limb just below the knee cutting it to the bone. He is suffering considerably from the wound at present but it is hoped that it may heal without any serious results.
