LORRY LOAD OF PIGS.
CAPSIZE AT CORNER. DRIVER'S DIFFICULT PURSUIT. [BY TELEGRAPH. —OWN CORRESPONDENT.] HAMILTON, Thursday. A motor-lorry loaded with pigs was proceeding to the Franklin saleyards when it capsized at Atkin's Corner, near the Roman Catholic Church, Frankton. Owing to the swaying of the lorry the pigs were thrown against one side of the vehicle, causing it to crash over on its side. The lorry was somewhat damaged, which allowed the pigs to escape, and the driver, who was not injured, had some difficulty in recapturing his freight.
