ACCIDENT AT EARLVILLE – A brakeman by the name of H. Adams, who runs on Robb's freight train, was badly hurt at Earlville last Friday by falling between the cars. He was much bruised and received a severe flesh wound on the head, but we learned that no bones are broken. He was kindly cared for by the station agent Stever, and the probability is that he will recover.
