SAD ACCIDENT. Frank Davis, one of
crew of men employed in unloading cement
from sch. W. r. Perkins at the Maine Cen
trail wharf, met with an accident Monday
morning which resulted in the loss of his
left leg. AS the cement was hoisted from
the vessels hold it was loaded into freight
cars which were run down the wharf on a
spur track. When it became necessary
about $50 to back up another car, the crew
started it down the track, and as it neared
the head of the wharf, Mr.. Davis attempted
to climb up to set the brakes, but his foot
slipped and he fell, his leg going under the
wheel, and before the car could be stopped
he was dragged some distance He was
taken to the Waldo County General Hospi-
tai and on examination it was found that
the leg was so badly crushed and bruised
that amputation above the knee was neces-
sary, and the operation was successfully
performed The patient is getting along
very well.
