Times News 1966
  William F. Lierman, 74, Route 1, pioneer farmer, died at 4:25 p.m. Saturday 
in Magic Valley Memorial Hospital of injuries received in a tractor accident 
Thursday afternoon.
  Hospital spokesman said Lierman apparently got off his tractor to make some 
adjustments when the accident occured. The spokesman added Lierman was 
standing between the front and rear tires trying to get his tractor in gear, 
rather then climbing back on the tractor Lierman pushed the clutch with his 
hand and put the tractor in gear.The tractor moved forward, knocking him to 
the ground, He told hospital authorities the rear wheel ran over his shoulder, 
then before he could get clear of the machinery, the Cultipacker attachment on 
the rear of the tractor ran over his head.
  Lierman reportedly crawled to his car and was there for about an hour before 
he was found. He was consciouse at the time, and was later taken to the 
hospital. The spokesman said he was doing quite well Saturday morning, then 
went in to a coma about noon Saturday and later died.
  Mr. Lierman was born Dec 21, 1891, at Deshler, Neb., and came to the Clover 
Tract 50 years ago in the second group of settlers from Nebraska. He has been 
a resident of Twin Falls for many years and was a lifelong member of the 
Lutheran Church and the Immanuel Lutheran Church.
  He is survived by two sisters, Emily Lierman, Twin Falls, and Mrs. Henry 
Wasemiller, Ephrata, Wash.

Lutheran Church by Rev. Harold Iben, Friends may call at White Mortuary until
