RUSSELL PITTS CUTS LIP
WITH SHARP KNIFE
----------
Russell Pitts, a well known farmer of
Union township, was painfully injured Saturday afternoon at four o'clock, while
assisting in shredding fodder on the Carey Cotton farm.
Mr. Pitts was using a sharp knife in severing the bands when in some manner he
put too much force on the handle and the blade penetrated his lower lip, making
an ugly wound. The blade cut entirely thru the lip. Dr. Emerson
Barnum* dressed the injury.
