Transcribed by Norma Knotts Shaffer from microfilm
of the Calhoun Chronicle dated 1/20/1921.
Erra Stump, pusher for the Hope, mixed himself up with a flue expander
the first of the week, and as a result is wearing one of the finest black
eyes it has ever been our pleasure to look upon. He was expanding
the flues in a boiler when the tool he was using slipped and threw him
with great force against the boiler, bruising and lacerating his face and
head very bad. This is the tale "Crow" tells and it is a good one.
It may be true but he sure looks like some tooley had worked out on him
with a jack handle. |
