A buggy was overturned by a trolley car near the corner of Washington and First avenue yesterday and a lady was badly scared. She had unhitched her horse and was preparing to drive away. The horse was slow of comprehension and the lady was weak of muscle so that the rear of the buggy came in contact with the street car track at a moment when a reversal of the motor was inadequate to overcome the momentum acquired by the car. Nobody was to blame but the horse against which no complaint for damages can be lodged. But fortunately there were no damages.
