Machine Overturns, Pin-- ning Victim Under Wheel. Walter Madge, 68, of 'Exeter, was fatally, injured on Tuesday when a tractor he was operating on the farm of Lorne Oke, 2nd• concession of Usborne, Upset and pinned to the ground. The in- jured man was found, by his son-in- law, Norval Jones, Exeter, by whom Mr. Madge was employed, who had gone into the field to search for him when he failed to appear at the barn. Dr. J. G. Dunlop, coroner, who with Provincial Constable Elmer Zimmerman, were called to the scene, believed death was caused by a fracture of the neck at a point where the, fender of the heavy machine had pinned him to the ground. Absence, of any evi- dence to show that he tried to free himself indicated that he 'died in- stantly. The tractor showed that he had intended to make a turn to avoid a 7 -foot ditch which was at an angle to the road and slip- ped down the embankment. Mr. Madge had lived a mile and a quarter southeast of Hensall, where he Farmed for 38,years, gra ing to Exeter last fall.
