jamestown Journals While operating
a sewing machine at her home on Yves,
Seventh street Wednesday afternoon
Miss Agnes Folder had the misfortune
to get her finger under the machine
needle. which penetrated II. The nee
die became bent In the operation, and
II was impossible for her to turn the
machine so as to withdraw II. Being
alone In the house at the time. she
was sure enough prisoner. and could
not attract N.lantlon by her cries for
help for fully an hour. Finally Lionel
o. Robertson heard her while passing
the house, lie went to the rescue, but
could not turn the machine to release
the unfortunate young woman. A ma
chinlst and a physician were sent for.
On the arrival OF the machlnlst he was
compelled TO take the machine apart
before Miss Folder could be released.
The physician then extracted the nee
die. and the wound will soon heal, but
the experience is one which will doubt
less be remembered by the victim for
a long time.
