Fairmont Sentinel: Saturday after
noon R. c. McCadden had a rather
peculiar and painful accident He
was in the Fairmont Motor Com
pany's work room standing near an
auto that had been repaired and the
engine was running to try it
out. Without warning of any
kind the big air cooling fan burst
into a thousand pieces and were
thrown all over the shop. A few
of them struck Dick in the face,
cutting his forehead, his nose and
cheeks and injuring one eye. 1t is
not expected that any of the inju-
ries will prove serious beyond being
very painful for some time. 1t was
rather lucky all around.
