The Sandersville Herald February 9, 1905
Fifteen Year Old Boy is Caught Between Elevator and Floor in Yarn Mills.

Tennille, Ga., February 2-Watson Mobley, 15 years old, was the victim of a 
serious accident at the cotton yarn mills. The boy was on the mill elevator 
when on looking over the edge, his head was caught between the surrounding 
platform and the second story floor, badly mashing his face and breaking his 
jawbone. One ear was completely torn from his face and his escape from instant 
death was miraculous.

Young Mobley's family was from Millen, several of whom are mill hands well 
known in Georgia.
