George Bourboau Drawn Be-
tween Cylinders In CaTdlng Room
BODY WAS BADLY CRUSHED.
Before Machinery Gould Be Stopped the
Youths Body Had Been Drawn Down
TO Above the Pelvls.

A peculiar fatality occurred at the At
lantic mills shortly after o'clock yester-
day afternoon in which George Bourbeau,
Is years old, lost his life by being crushed
between two cylinders in the carding
room
Just how the accident happened Is not
known. the first knowledge OF the trouble
being cry from the unfortunate boy
as he was being drawn into the narrow
space between the cylinders. one OF which
was turning and the other was still.
Bourbeau was engaged in polishing the
card clothing on one OF the cylinders, the
machinery on which he was employed
consisting OF number OF cylinders near
together He was seated on a stationary
tube and at work on one in motion. The
cylinder at his back was in motion.
In some manner the young man lost
his balance and fell backward, uttering
a cry OF alarm which was heard by
Daniel Mcguire, an oiler. who saw the
boy being drawn between the rolls. He
threw off the belt. stopping the ma
chinery, and notified the oVerseer, Walter
Howard.
The youth was found wedgcd In be-
tween the cylinders in space less than
AZ inches wide. his body having been
drawn down into the contracted space
until the heavy, bony structure OF the
pelvis and other bones OF the body were
crushed and broken and the cylinders
broke under the pressure.
willing hands went TO work 10 take
down the machinery 10 release the body
the work taking about ten minutes. After
the boy was taken out he lived about five
minutes.
A hurry call was sent out for doctors
and also for the Rhode leland hospital
ambulance, but the young man had
passed away before the first physician
arrived.
Medical Examiner Perkins was notified
and made an examination of the body,
and found that the crushing force OF the
pressure had caused the pelvis 10 coll
lapse. and the lower part OF the body had
been crushed so that the tissues burst
and presented a torn appearance. Blood
was forced through the nose from the
terrible compression of the lower part OF
the body.
The medical examiner concluded death
was due to accident, and directed Under
taker John H. Walsh to take charge OF
the remains.
The victim OF the accident came 10 this
city with his widowed mother. two
brothers and two sisters, from Worcester
on Nov. ~. He found employment as a
card grinders helper In the No. mill OF
