GEORGE WALTER HURT

George Walter narrowly escaped
being killed Monday evening when a
big steam traction engine turned over
with him. catching him beneath it
and bruising him badly. He was un-
loading the engine from a fiat car
on the o. r. & N. tracks, when the
engine slipped and turned over,
throwing George beneath it, but he
fell in such a way that he was not
crushed, but badly bruised. 1t was
thought at first that he was injured
internally, but after being taken to
his home he recovered and examina-
tion showed that his injuries are ex-
ternal and not serious, but his es-
cape from being crushed or scalded
to death was a narrow one. The en-
gine fen with the smoke stack buried
in the ground and the wheels up in
the air. The engine was not badly
damaged.
