PlOWman Falls Under
PlOW And Is Killed

While handling the levers of a big
5-disc gang plow, which was being
drawn by tractor, Kisaburo Yoshida,
a Japanese laborer, aged 35, fell be-
meath the implement and was so badly
injured that he died about two hours
later. The man is survived by wife
and two small children, who live at
Haiku.
The accident occurred about 1890
o'clock last Friday afternoon on the
lands of the Haiku Ranch company,
just east of Maliko gulch. Just what
caused the man to fall is unknown,
as none of the other workmen hap
pened to be looking toward him at
the time. AS he fell, wheel of the
heavy plow passed directly across his
face, crushing the skull. He was rush
ed to the Paia hospital, but died
short time after reaching the insti-
tuition.
At the coroner's inquest held on
Saturday, a verdict of accidental death
was returned.
