JOE KAUS
Oct 6, 1896
Az Republican Newspaper

The Kingman Miner says: A Mr. Kelly arrived in Kingman Thursday 
evening in quest of a doctor to attend a man named Joe Kaus, 
who had that morning been badly injured in the mill of the 
Cedar Valley Mining Compnay at Cedar.  Mr. Kaus has been 
working in a settling tank and was wearing a pair of rubber 
boots.  Stepping from the tank to the top of one of the pans, 
which was in motion, his lootleg was caught by a nut on the 
sleeve of the muller and in an instant he was being whirled 
around at a terrific rate.  Before assistance reached him his 
leg below the knee was broken and the flesh stirpped from the 
bone.

The sight was a horrible one and the suffering of the poor 
fellow was intense.
