a kiss on his cheek, whispered she would

At almost the same hour one of his
sons. about two miles away, was
caught in belt while standing near
some machinery and his clothes torn
into shreds. A few hours later another
sons hand was caught In piece OF
machinery, and hardly was the news OF
this accident received by the parents

the youngest son was suddenly strick-
