ACCIDENT AT BAND SAW MILL: This forenoon Norman GRAHAM, one of the men
employed at the Band Saw Mill, met with quite a serious accident. A log had
been quartered and made ready to saw into lumber. In helping to handle it
he was in some manner struck on the head by one of the pieces influcting a
very serious wound. He was brought to Dr. GERRISH's office who made an
examination and found a fracture of the skull. The wound was dressed and in
time it is believed he will come through all right. He is resting very well
this afternoon.
