The Atlanta Constitution May 2, 1918
     Robert Irvin DENHAM, 17 years old, of 11 Wellborn Street, was instantly 
killed at the plant of the Atlantic Steel Company Tuesday afternoon. Officials 
of the company Wednesday refused to make any statement concerning the accident, 
stating they would make a thorough investigation before making public any 
details of the accident.
     It is reported that DENHAM was crushed when several tons of iron bars, 
which were suspended on a crane, fell, when, it is said, the pulley broke, 
causing the entire load to fall on him. The body was removed to the chapel of H. 
M. PATTERSON & SON. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. DENHAM, of 
Toronto, Canada, and three sisters, Mrs. Clarence LEACH and Misses Elaine and 
Inez DENHAM.
