He was on his way lo Detroit with a load of barley, and while descending a hill, the staple of the neck yoke come out, the horses become frightened and cleared themselves of the waggon, leaving Mr. Bunn with the wheels resting upon him. When extricated, he was found to be entirely dead, hisscull having been fraïtured by blows from the horses fcet. We understand that Mr. Bunn was from Marengo in this State, and has left a wife and six children to lament his untimely death.
