a cog wheel which turns the regulator, and he
seeing the danger made a desperate effort to
disengage himself, but was unsuccessful, and a
strip of flesh was torn from nearly the entire
length of his arm. His companions being I'M
able to stop the engine, he finally succeeded in
getting a sharp knife, and, with singular cour-
age and presence of mind, cut the loose flesh,
near his body, which held him to the wheel,
and thereby probably saved himself from be-
ing fatally mangled. Strange to say no bones
were broken, though the bones and cords Of
his arm were laid bare by the accident. He
has suffered intense pain, yet is getting along
as well as could reasonably be expected.
