It seems that s certain belt had slipped from its place and Valentine was trying to replace it. By some means or other the hand was caughtand the whole arm terribly sawn and lacerated. It was 20 minutes or more before he could be taken out. A surgeon was quickly called and the torn and bleeding arm was taken off but the poor man died about 5 o'clock. He leaves a wife and four children and a host of friends to mourn his loss File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ms/jones/newspapers/danvalen19nnw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/msfiles/ File size: 1.2 Kb
