Harry Wilson aged 21 years son of B.
T. Wilson of Glade Run. was fatally
scalded while pumping an oil well at

boiler house. His father brought his
body home.
Robert Martin, formerly of Evans
C'itv. a brother of Mis W. II Young
and Mrs. I. J. Mcßride of Butler met
with'a terrible death while working on
an oil well on the Bauerlein farm, in
Shsler township Allegheny Co., about
two miles from Etna. The accident
which caused Martin's death was a very
peculiar vine, and a fellow-workman, L.
I. Nntt, narrowly escaged sharing the
same fate. Both men were engaged in
splicing a sand line. The line is of i in.
wire rope. Abont 1000 feet of this line
was down the well, which was about
1,600 feet deep. Martin and Nutt were
splicing a 200-foot piece to the 1,000 feet
already in the well. The upper end of
the long piece was hitched to the upper
works of the derrick,
When the work had almost been com
pleted. one of the other men working
about the well noticed that the hitching
on the long sand line was working loose.
He called to Nu*t and Martin to be care
ful. Nntt realized the danger and
jumped away, just as the hitching
broke. Martin was in such a position
that he could not move quickly and was
caught. The long piece of sandline
weighed about 800 pounds, and when its
hitching gave way the weight started
dropping to the bottom of the well.
The splicing was strong enough to hold
and the short piece of line which was
free, immediately began to switch about
as though charged with electricity.
Before Martin could move he was com
pletely enmeshed in the folds of the
cable and his body wag thrown about
the derrick and beaten against posts
until his fellow-workman, wk > were
IK)werlesa to aid him. turned away at
the si^ht.
Finally the bruised and battered body
was thrown free of the line and outside
the derrick. He had been terribly bat
tered and was barely alive When aid
reached him. His chest was crushed
and many bones in his body were broken
Martin lived at No. 1301 Juniata street
Allegheny, and is survived by a wife
and five children. A brother, William
Martin, is in the employ of the Pitts
burg Department of Public Safety.
