Mrs. Louis Bucholz, who lives several miles east of town, had her hand severely injured while unloading hay with a large hayfork Tuesday morning. She was driving the horse and was walking quite close to it when the hook by which the tug is fastened to the whiffle-tree became loosened and the whiffle-tree flew around striking her heavily on the breast and also making a severe wound in the back of her left hand. The blow rendered her unconscious. Dr. Nedry dressed the wound.
