Turton, SD Wagon Accident, Mar 1907

Farmer Badly Hurt

Caught Between Wagon and Door Plate - May Die

Redfield, S. D., March 22. - George WILSON, a prominent farmer residing near Turton, Spink county, was perhaps fatally injured as the result of a pecullar accident. After loading his wagon with grain in his granary he mounted the load, and while driving out through the large door the plate of the door, being quite low, caught him and before he could be rescued from his trying position he was seriously crushed and his back was injured. His recovery is doubtful.
