CLIFFORD Lahman while at work on the
Earl Plattenberger farm last Saturday
was injured in q runaway accident and
1t was by the closest margin that the
accident was not fatal. Clifford was
driving an empty hay rack to the field.
He stepped on to the tongue to adjust
the fly nets and tho he had spoken to
the horses they were startled and began
to run. The young man was rdagged
under the tongue for some distance
until finally the team ran into a barb
wire fence and here 1t was that Clifford
was cut badly about the neck and head,
several stitches being necessary to
close the wounds. In addition to his
other injuries he was much bruised.
One Of the horses was badly cut 10y the

weeks ago at the Algona cemetery,
when q large monument he was un-
loading fell from the wagon and caught
Mr.. Shelley's leg. The flesh was torn
loose from the knee down and the
ankle and instep badly crushed The
wonder is that it did not crush his
limb completely. AS 1t is 1t will be
some time before he will be able to
resume his work. But very few people
knew of Mr.. Shelley's accident. as IT
was supposed he was out Of the city,

able to be out Monday by the aid OF
crutches and his many friends were
surprised to learn Of his misfortune
and hope he will soon be able to take
