Injuries

Brookings. Nov. 23.-One young
man is dead of his injuries, three
others are badly bruised and scratched

If several hundred dollars as the result
of an auto accident in Brookings
county last week. The accident hap
pened about four miles north of Volga
and two miles west of Bruce. Tony

ga, accompanied by John Bertness,
Emil Steen and Vern Goodroad, was
returning to Volga from Bruce when,
in making a turn in the road, the

were riding in the back seat, but
landing Cd it's wheels and continuing
its journey with johnson and Bertness.
AS soon as the car could be stopped
Goodroad and Steen were picked up.
Goodroad, who seemed to be the most
seriously injured, was rushed to the
Volga hospital.
At first no alarm was felt about
his injuries and it was thought that
he would recover, but, failing to i'm.
prove by Monday, an operation was
performed and it was found that his
liver had been completely cut in two,
the lower part falling to the bottom OF
the abdominal cavity. This, together
with other internal injuries, made
recovery impossible and he died about
2 O'Clock Tuesday evening. The
machine was badly demolished. 1t
struck the ground with such force that
the sod was showed off for yards and
the ground torn up.
The deceased young man was the son
