Death in Teeswater Mill
-
Mr, Albert E. Homuth, who recent-
ly sold, his farm 10 Turnberry and
purchased the Teeswater Flour Mills,
met with a most unfortunate accident
early Monday mprnieg. He went
down to the mill about six o'clock
and started the power, finding one of
the spouts almost choked he crawled
into the bin over the shafting and in
some manner a thrge set screw on
the shaft caught in the back of his
coat pulling him around the revolving
shaft witli terrific force. Mr, Hark-
ness, his miller, happened just by
chance to go to the river to fish for
an hour before going to Work and
went into the mill, an act for which
lie eannot account, and hearing the
strange 'sounding below shut off the
power. Going down he found Mr,
Homuth, in great agony, fast, to the
shafting. He cut his, clothe.e with his
lcnife and let him down, Medical aid
was at once called and it was found
that both feet were badly smashed
where they were pounded against the
ceiling aid wall. The set screw had
punched a•painful hole in his back and
-
a coupleof ugly gashes were spade in
his legs..
Upon examination after he had been
taken to his home it was found that
his body was not very much hurt ex-
cepting for a few minor bruises. One
foot may have to be amputated and
one of the centre toes on the left foot
willebe amputated. The cuts on the
lege and back are very painful, but it
is hoped that with the best of care will
be soon healed up.. His head is also
bruised, but nothing to cause alarm,
Mr. Hpmuth's many friends will be
sorry to bear of his unfortunate acci-
dent, hilt pleased. to• learn that his con-
dition' is -not so serious as at first re-
ported.. He only lost consciousness
for a couple. of- minutes after Mr.
