Jul 16. Mr JOSEPH SIMS, a respectable farmer at Pasture's Hill, near Newland, was in his field on Wednesday superintending the loading of clover, when one of the horses becoming restive, he laid hold of the rein, and (being nearly 80 years of age,) was forced down by the horse, and the wheels of the waggon passing over him, caused such injuries, that he died on the following day.
