Wednesday morning about eight
o'clock Schultz has had a gravel
contract for some time and his broth

at Ashby.
The brother was standing near a
wall of the pit when the accident oc-
CURED. The wall of gravel was
straight up and down and frozen
hard. Dynamite had been used in
blasting the gravel and it is thought
that big mass of the frozen gravel
might have been loosened in that
manner. A large frozen mass
slipped from the gravel bank and
struck Schultz, killing him instantly.
The workers in the pit saw his
head and hair sticking out from
underneath the gravel, and no time
was lost in digging away the gravel
that covered him. It was found that
he had been killed by the terrific i'm
pact of the frozen gravel mass which
it is believed weighed at least five
tons. His neck was broken and his
body injured.
The body will be taken to Herman
where the funeral is to be held.
