Lebo Ewbank Severely Injured In Runaway Accident.

Lebo Ewbank, a farm hand working for Jerry Branson on the Ed Parkinson fam, west of Rensselae, was severely injured this Thursday morning in a runaway accident. Ewbank was driving a team of'taules from the Ezra Wolfe place and was walking along beside the wagon. The team became frightened and started* to run and in attempting to stop them Mr. Ewbank was thrown to the ground and the wagon passed over him, breaking his right leg above the knee. His left foot was also sprained and his back received slight injuries also. Dr. English was called and Ewbank was brought to town in the ambulance and taken to the home of Joab Branson, who is taking care of him. Mr. Eubank had come to Indiana the day before and had just started to work at the Branson farm. He is a cousin of Webb Jackson. Dr. English was assisted in the care of the unfortunate man. Itwill probably be several months before he can resume work. . +
