He was cutting grain on his
farm northwest Of WabassO when
cOrnStalks got caught in the sickle
and he stopped to remove them.
The clutch of the tractor was re-
leased suddenly, probably by the
jar of the motor and the binder
jcrked forward.
The sudden start jerked the
front of the binder upward, al
lowing the platform to pass over
his body but he received severe
cuts on his arm and a piece of
flesh was torn from his hip.
