DISTRESSING ACCIDENT

LeRoy Gardner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter A. Gardner, was instantly killed by 
a big water wheel, near their home in Boise Monday evening. On his way home 
from school he stopped with other children to play at a big water wheel. It is 
supposed that while attempting a ride on the wheel he fell through and was 
struck by a paddle of the wheel while lying at the bottom of the ditch. He was 
alone when the accident happened, the other children having gone home.

Both parents use to live here. Mrs. Gardner is the daughter of Frank Gardner 
of Payette Heights. Mrs. Gardner is a nephew of the Wayne brothers.(?) We 
understand the body will be brought to Payette for interment.

and died 4-19-1915. He is buried at Riverside Cemetery, Payette. ch
