Show ABSTRACTED FARMER MEETS WITH INJURY Absorbed in calculations of' this year's alfalfa and potato crops. Rood;- McElroy. 33 years of age, retired farmer, strode pensively along the sidewalk in front of St. Mary's cathedral late yesterday afternoon, after-noon, unheedful of the rhythmic hammer beats of mechanics who were repairing the roof. 'Look out below:" suddenly cried a fat tinsmith on the roof. McElroy, startled, looked up. As he did so. a piece of iron pine fell on his head. Four stitches sufficed to suture three scalp lacerations at the emergency hos-pital. |
