Steuben County, NY Mad Bull Accident, Mar 1909

ny steuben county mad bull accident mar 1909

-----W. H. Wheeler, of Cameron, Steuben county, N. Y., was gored to death by a mad bull on his farm. He had gone to the barn late in the afternoon to care for his cattle and other stock and, as he did not return at the accustomed time, his wife, fearing some misfortune had overtaken him, went to the barn in search of him. Among his stock was a large bull, which to all appearances had suddenly attacked Mr. Wheeler as he was feeding him and the unfortunate man evidently had been trampled and gored by the infuriated beast till his life had been crushed out. Mrs. Wheeler summoned assistance and the body of her husband was taken to the house. But he was beyond earthly assistance, as he had been dead for some time. Mr. Wheeler was a highly esteemed and widely known citizen of that county, and his tragic death is deeply deplored.
