Unknown Publication-Probably Skamokawa Eagle-1904
Skamokawa, Wahkiakum County, Washington

John Iverson met with a mishap last Sunday morning which might have resulted a good 
deal worse than it did.  He was backing his light wagon up to the creamery to deliver his 
cream and milk, and in some manner gave the old horse a shoot in the wrong direction, 
with the result that he backed the wagon over into the road leading to the lower entrance 
to the creamery, this feat having been accomplished, the old horse slid over tail first on 
top of the wreck, and strange as it may seem, never hurt himself.  But the cream, milk and 
wagon were a sight to make a horse laugh.  The dame will amount to between $10 and 
$15.
