woodsman iii these parts having work
ed nearly all last winter in the livery
stable Of +. 0. Porter, met with Il severe
accident last Thursday. Charley was
driving team hauling logs Oh the big
logging wheels at Hunter & Anderson's

he was at the pole steadying it, when
one Of the wheels struck an obstruction,
the pole at the same time throwing him
back in front OF the large wheels. BY
some pretty quick moves he managed to
get his body out OF the way OF the com
ing wheels, but one passed over his left
foot completely tearing away all flesh
from the in-step to the toes, but luckily
breaking no bones. Or. Haddy was
summoned and he went down and dress

placing the flesh Oh his foot. Mr.. john
son was fortunate enough to have taken
out a hospital ticket three days previous
and left, saturday, for the hospital at
