Bangor, ME Ladder Accident, Apr 1896

Posted October 18th, 2007 by Linda Horton

On Thursday forenoon as several of Marston & Gorham's painters were up on a swinging ladder at the top of Mr. Abel Hunt's new house on Garland street, the ladder broke and all fell to the ground a distance of about thirty feet. Strange to say none of them was hurt and they went on painting.

Bangor Daily Whig and Courier, Bangor, ME 17 Apr 1896
