Show SUSTAINS BAD CUT Spencer Christensen, the 19-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Antone Christensen Chris-tensen of Fayette, met with a painful pain-ful accident last Saturday, when he received an ugly gash in his left foot at the ankle. Spencer was cutting wood and in some manner the course of the axe was deflected with the results re-sults above given. An artery was severed and the blood gushed from the wound rapidly. The young man was loaded into his father's car and when midway between Gunnison and Fayette car trouble was encountered. In the meantime the flow of blood continued and the boy's life was in danger. A passing car carried the young man to Gunnison and soon Dr. Hagan had the flow stopped. Not, however, how-ever, until sufficient blood had been lost to make the injured boy weak. At last reports he was doing fine and was out of danger. |
