John Burke is seriously but not
fatally injured. his leg being broken
and his head badly torn. The dead are
awaiting burial at St. Thomas, about
three miles from the scene of the acct
dent. The men had barely got to work
when the accident occurred. and Paul
Mccartney, the engineer. and Frazer. the
waterman, were clustered about the
engine discussing some trouble in its
working, as the steam gauge was not
registering correctly. The force OF the
explosion was in the direction of the
separator, and Mccartney was directly
in its line. He was picked up and
thrown ten rods. His right leg and arm
were blown off and his abdomen torn
open, the viscera prOtrudiDg. The
body was entirely denuied, and was a
fearful sight. A flying fragment struck
Daley band cutter in the middle OF
the back and tore every rib from the
vertebr8. He fingered in awful agony
for three hours, begging the horror
stricken people to end his misery. Be
fore ne died. he said he could not blame
any one for the accident. Paul, the
engineer, had nearly all his bones broken
and his face was fiattened and distorted
in death. The boy Charles Frazer, had
his arms and legs broken. and was al
most driven into the earth by the force
of the explosion. so close was he to the
engine. Paul and Frazer were cousins,
and came here from Rat Portage.
Daley was st. Paul man.
