Friday, near Redland, while engaged
in moving a traction engine. He was
walking alongside the engine while in
motion aud attempted to oil some part
of the machinery, when his feet slipped
and he fell partially under the same.
Mr.. Frank Monday, who had charge
of the machine, as soon as he saw him
fall, reversed the lever and stopped the
engine, but not before it had passed
over the feet of the unfortunate man,
tearing the skin and flesh from one
foot and badly lacerating the other.

Fling was carried to his home. A
physician was called, and upon exami-

broken, but that the flesh was badly
torn. AT latest accounts the wounded
man was resting easily, and unless
