HUFNAIL FATALLY HURT
Ex-Deputy Sheriff Run Over by
a Road Roller.

No hopes are entertained for the
recovery of Daniel M. Hufnail of
Reading, the former deputy sheriff
who was involved in the alienation
of affection case of Edith M. Hufnail
VS.. Vanessa Blake, which was tried
at the recent term of the Windsor
county court, from the injuries
which he received Saturday when he
was run over by the road roller on
which he was working.
Mr.. Hufnail was engaged in break
ing open the roads and in some way
fell from the roller which passed
completely over him. Since the ac-
cident he has been in paralyzed
condition and his death is expected.
He was but recently married to
Vanessa Blake, the defendent in the
alienation suit.
