Hunter of Talent. Mrs. Hunter had been picking berries at the Hockersmith place and while driving down the street, near Engineer McCarthy's residence something caused the horse to run. She was thrown out of the buggy and dragged for a short distance and when discovered was unconscious and it is thought her skull was fractured. The unfortunate lady never recovered consciousness and died a few hours afterward. Her husband who was out in Klamath County was telegraphed for, and the interment took place at Talent on Wednesday.
