Frank Lee, 81 years old. assistant miller
at the Reliance mill at PA Dyer street
had a narrow escape from instant death
at the mill at Z 80 this morning. He is
now at the Rhode Island Hospital, the
doctors at that institute have no hopes OF
his recovery.
Mr.. Lee, has been in the employ for
more than seven years, and was looked up
on as a competent and careful man. This
morning he was at work on what is
known as n Coggeswell mill which is
used for grinding corn. The hopper OF
the mill is V-shaped the top is about two
feet across the top ana three feet deep.
The grinus ut the bottom of the hopper
are driven by pulley, which is fastened
TO the floor. The wheel makes 1900 reyo-
lutions a minute and is driven by a seven

inch belt, is connected from the floor be-
low.
Mr.. Lee was standing on the north side
of the hopper, and IL is supposed, he
thrust his right arm down into il for the
purpose OF clearing away some obstacle
that stopped the flow of the corn. This
would leave his left arm hanging down
over the side os the hopper. ana IL Is
thought the sleeve OF his jumper must
have caught under the belt.
The first intimation the other workmsD
had OF the accident was the thrashipg OF
the belt in the room below. and when
they hurried 10 the grinding room they
found Lee bruised. bleeding and uncon-
scious on the floor. and on the opposite
side OF the machine from where he stood
few minutes before. An ambulance
from the hospits. was summoned. aud
when Lee bad reached the hospital the
attending physician at once sent word TO
the young mans relatives at Warren.
Mrs Lee and an elder brother OF the
unfortunate young man responded to the
summons.
On examination it was found that
Lees skull had been fractured and that
he had sustained we're concussion OF
the brain. The left arm had been twisted
from its socket, and portion of the left
ear had been torn Oft. There were other
bru ses, but the physicians paid but little
attention 20 the minor hurts.
1t is supposed, that when the young
man was caught. no was carried over the
wheel, with his left arm between the belt
and face of tbs pulley And that his head
came in contact with the floor or pulley
stands with such force as 10 render him
uncon scious.
Inc pulley is not more than four inches
above the floor, and the space where ho
must have been caught is small.
