Samuel H. Alford, living near Forrest, went out to plow on Monday morning, and not returning, search was made and he was found dead under his plow, with one of the horses lying down entangled in the harness. The coroner’s jury found that his death had resulted from a broken neck, probably caused by the team running away.
