Beeckler, George ( 2 Painful Accidents - DEC 1917)

Geo. Beeckler of the town of Levis (Clark Co., Wis.), oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. E.A. Beeckler of this place, is since Sunday, confined to his home as the result of a runaway experienced at Hutchings Corners that morning when an auto truck came up beside the team. George was driving, and the auto driver honking his horn so frightened George's team that they ran away and in the fracas tipped the wagon over onto George and severely injuring him. Only a few days before this, George, in preparing firewood had had a stick fly up and hit him, and breaking his nose. All of which comes as unwelcome news to his many old friends here.
