The result was fatal. She hit th cnrriage wlth the heel, completely demollshlng lt, whlle the toe awmig around, klllliig the drlverand one of the horses, aod the room was mainied for Ufe.- Aun Arbor CoUBira. To this the Enterprise replies: This Isa baefabrlcatlon from beglnnlng to end. The editor of the Coukier knows well enough that no Mauchester girl could throw her snoe. lt was his own glrl that dld lt.
