Upon arriving on the scene the boy was frantically trying to release re-lease himself which would have been impossible. Mr. Jacobson lost no time in quieting the boy down and lifting the tractor enough to release his leg. Mr. Jacobson says the boy was so pinned that is was a miracle of inches over a tragedy. The boy's leg was pinned under the cushion of the seat and he received re-ceived no injury, except a slight bruise on the hip. He was somewhat some-what shocked. The tractor was slightly damaged. He lost control of the tractor when the wheels struck a bank of loose dirt left by the road grad er on the edge of the ditch. |
