Man Crushed Under Roller As Horses become Frightened

Thomas Renwick of Potters Corners Dies Instantly This Morning.

Thomas Renwick of Potter’s corners, 62 years of age, died at 10 o’clock this 
morning when a heavy roller on which he was riding in a field ran over his head 
and chest.  The tongue to the roller broke and frightened the team and he was 
thrown under the roller, dying almost instantly.

Renwick was in poor health and had rented his farm to a man named Johnson.  He 
went out this morning to help Johnson for a half day.  The team he was riding 
was a pair of driving horses which were full of life and started with a jump as 
the tongue broke.  Renwick was married a few years ago to Miss Ida Butler, who 
was formerly a dress maker in Ionia.
