    It seems as if in Warsaw the milkman's horse has never seen a cow. Anyway, the horse was so frightened when he saw a cow being led down a road that the horse started to run and was finally stopped only after he had dragged the milk wagon and driver into a ditch beside the road. Chauncey Rife, of Warsaw, was the milk wagon driver. He says the old horse has been delivering milk for years but probably never saw a cow in the daylight.
