Mrs. Lake Harris
Mrs. Lake Harris, 64, died at 8:00 o'clock Monday morning as the result of being trampled by an angry cow Friday evening, near Jay Em.
Mr. and Mrs. Harris had driven out to the pasture about 6:00 o'clock to bring in a Jersey cow and her new-born calf. When Mr. Harris went to get the calf, the cow wheeled and charged Mrs. Harris, knocked her down and trampled her.
