Chr. Iversen had an accident Tues
day evening of last week which
might have proved fatal. The acct
dent was not known until Friday.
when he came to the local physician
for medical attention. 1t was in the
evening after dark when Mr.. Iversen
went to his tool chest for some tools,
he showed his left arm against very
sharp chisel, resulting in deep cash
in the wrist, which bled badly. The
wound was bandaged up by himself
and he went to bed, but during the
night the bandage came partly off
and when he awoke in the morning
there was a big pool of blood on the
floor. Being in a very weakened
condition he tainted twice. Unfor-
tunately, Wednesday and Thursday
were rainy days and there were no
visitors at the Iversen place, so he
was all alone; usually there are many
visitors in Mr.. Iversen's pretty gar
dens. Friday he went to the local
doctor to have it dressed and he is
now getting along we'll, although in
a very weakened condition. On Sun
day when a number of people had
heard about his accident he had
many visitors.
