Description : Killed by a Threshing Machine

William Ross, of Crathorne, son of John Ross, died last Friday at Wessington Springs, South Dakota, from injuries sustained seven days previous while threshing.

The belt came off the self-feeder and Mr. Ross put out his hand to stop it. His hand caught and he was hurled against the side of the machine, breaking his arm and injuring him internally. He was taken to the nearest house and cared for. His arm was amputated at the elbow, but his internal injuries were so great as to cause his death after seven days suffering. Read More
