A CLOSE CALL.: Two Well-Known Ladies Have a Narrow Escape. A runaway which occurred last evening endangered the lives of two well known ladies of this city. At about 5 o'clock Mrs. Freeman G. Teed and Mrs.Joseph Schoder were driving on South Broadway near Fourth street, when the horse, which had previously shown signs of restiveness, began shying, and finally ran away, the ladies being unable to retain control. The buggy was upset and Mrs. Teed was thrown out, luckily suffering no injuries of importance, while Mrs. Schoder, who held the reins, retained her hold on them and was dragged for some distance and badly bruised. The horse was stopped eventually through the weight of the plucky Mrs. Schoder, and the two ladies were taken to their respective homes. Dr. Moore was called to attend them and luckily nothing more serious than contusions was diagnosed. --Los Angeles Herald, 10/27/1891, p. 3:
