My husband, Mr.. Adelbert Potter. was Sc
siously injured in box factory at Hinck-
ley, this state. While repairing some ma
chinery. He was hurt on the 23d of May
and he died on the Goth of the same
month. His left leg was terribly bruised
| and the small bone at the cap of the knee
was broken. Three ribs were broken and
| the strength muscle cut off from his left
| arm. He had the best surgeons and two
trained nurses, and all was done that
could be done to save him. But for in
ternal injuries he would have lived, as his
| wounds were doing we'll. Mr.. Potter was
true Christian and wanted all his friends
to be the same before 1t was too late. He
made beautiful prayer a short time be-
fore he died, and sang "Jesus, Lover of
My Soul, and several other hymns. He
said that he was not afraid to die, but
was as happy as could be. My husbands
father died in Minnesota the next week
after his sons death. Please send bill
and discontinue paper to my deceased
husbands address, as shall be going
from place to place so much that I will
not receive 1t regularly"
