Kick of Stallion Proves Fatal.

AS the result of kick he received
on the head by stallion while he was
in the barn at his farm near Alton,
Thomas Jones, aged 35 years, passed
away at Mercy hospital, GAINESVILLE,
about $50 o'clock Thursday afternoon,
never regaining consciousness since the
time of the accident. Surviving him
are his wife and one child.
It was while at work hitching up one
of the horses, with the halter already
off. The horse managed to free itself
and ran out of the barn. Running after
the animal, Mr.. Jones passed the stall
lion. The stallion frightened by the
commotion, kicked as Mr.. Jones passed
him, the hoof of his left rear foot
striking the head of the unfortunate
man.
When discovered the entire left side
of his skull was caved in and blood was
flowing freely. Drs. Mum and Waufie
were called and they decided to move
the man to Mercy hospital where he
succumbed later in the afternoon.
