Show FELL IN A WELL. Recently the wife of William? Sant? who resides near Clifton, Idaho, was engaged in looking into their well, when the boards on which she was standing slipped down at one end, and let her fall to the bottom, a distance of about 25 feet. The well being dry and walled, the result was not as serious as it might have been. Striking upon her face, one of her wrists was sprained and her face badly bruised; but otherwise she was comparatively uninjured. People cannot be too careful in covering wells, while by neglect in so doing serious and even fatal results may ensue. |
