D. K. /UELBY
LOSES A FOOT.
Popular Buyer for the Farmers' Elevator
at Coteau Meets With Distressing Acci
dent by Having Foot Caught in Re
volving Shaft, Necessitating
Amputation.
On Saturday last D. K. Melby, for
the past two years buyer at the Farm
ers' Elevator at Coteau, met with an
accident, resulting in the loss of one of
his teet. He had gone upstairs on the
elevator head and was in the act of put
ting some dressing on the belt or shaft,
standing the while with one leg on eith
er side of the main shaft, when his
pants leg became caught in a set screw
and the foot was quickly drawn over
and around the shaft, crunching the
bone and mangling the flesh in shock
ing manner and leaving the foot hang
ing by a portion of the skin thatjhad
not been entirely severed. He saved
his life, and 'twas little less than miracle
that he was able to, by quickly throw
ing both arms around the elevator head
and hanging on for 'dear life till the
foot had worked loose from the shaft.
The unfortunate man was alone in the
elevator at the time, and in this condi
tion made his way down to the ground
floor, where he was soon discovered and
medical attendance secured as quickly
as possible. Examination of his in
juries soon revealed the fact that am
putation of the already nearly severed
foot was absolutely necessary, which
was done at the anlcle joint, and at last
report Mr. Melby was getting along as
well as could be expected, though the
injury will of necessity lay him up for
several months to come. Mr. Melby is
a married man, haying wife and nine
children dependent on his labor, but
luckily he is a member in good standing
of the Modern Woodmen, so that during
his disability he and his will not be al
lowed to want for anything. He is well
known throughout this part of the coun
ty and is hignly thought of, all express
ing the most sincere regrets at the mis
fortune that has overtaken him.
