LEG IN BRICK MACHINE.
Daniel Porter Suffers Serious Acct
dent.

" bile Tightening bolt in crusher
a+ the CAPITAL City brick plant late Sat
urday evening, Daniel Porter's left leg
was caught in the machinery and
crushed from the foot to the knee. Only
wnen the machinery was stopped in an
instant was Porter's life saved.
Porter. who is an assistant foreman
at the brick plant, entered the large
crusher Saturday evening for the pur-
pose of Tightening one of the bolts An
employeee walked by the crusher few
minutes later and noticing that tha
machinery was not running, turned on
the mower, In an instant the mammoth
wheels began to turn. Porters left leg
was caught in the machine and ground
to a pulp. He screamed at the top OF
his voice and the employee shut off the
power. Then Porter was extricated.
Had the machine been stopped ten sec
onds later the man would have been
mangled beyond recognition in the
great wheels.
.sYou don't know how fast a man can
think on an occasion like that" said
Porter after his injuries had been
dressed and he was able to speak. 1T
seems to me that 1 thought of every
thing that ever happened in those few
seconds L was sure I would never
leave the crusher alive"
Porter is the father of several chill
dren and lives on West Sixth avenue
near Gage Park. Last summer Porter s
wife committed suicide by drinking a
quantity of carbolic acid.
Hard luck seems to have pursued the
Porter family since that time. For
more than 20 years Porter has worked
at the brick plant, but all of his earn
ings were required to keep together the
little home and to clothe and educate
the children. When the mother was
gone, Porter tried as best he could to
keep the little home intact. Things
were progressing nicely until the acct
dent Saturday evening. 1t is now prob
able that Porters leg must be ampu-
tated.
