Charles Cobb, young southeast Hamilton County farmer, was seriously burned Tuesday afternoon when he attempted to fill a truck with gasoline. Cobb attempted to pour gasoline into the fuel tank of the truck with its engine running and the gasoline exploded, causing first and second degree burns over more than half his body. His condition is serious, but he has a good chance to recover, said C. B. Grissom who dressed his injuries, Thursday afternoon. The accident occurred in a stubble field at the Cobb farm about thirty miles southeast of Syracuse where Cobb and a crew of harvesters were working. Other men in the crew extinguished the flames in the victim's clothing, and he was rushed to the Donohue Memorial Hospital in Syracuse. The truck was badly damaged by the flames which also ignited the wheat stubble and threatened adjacent fields of uncut wheat before they were extinguished. (Syracuse Journal, 20 July 1945)
