Hawera & Normanby Star, Volume LVI, Issue LVI, 21 July 1909, Page 8

On Tuesday Mr J. K. Cameron, of Hawera, and a friend from Wanganui hired a gie from Mr Wells's stables to drive around the Normanby district. At about 5.30 o'clock in the evening they had occasion to leave the gig in the street at Normanby. The horse became restive, got away from the post to which it Avas reined, and bolted into Hawera to its stables. That it must have come in at a hot pace was evident by the fact that the animal fell exhausted at the entrance to the stables, inflicting a flesh wound to the shoulder. The gig, which was taken to D. and J. Smith's for inspection, was not damaged, although the axle was slightly bent. A Limn and buggy rug were lost on the road. Mr Cameron and his friend had to hire another vehicle in which to return home.
