Little Boy Seriously Injured Cranking Auto.

Bernard, the 11-year-old son of Ira Brown, 6 miles southwest of town, was cranking an auto when the crank kicked and the little fellow was badly injured. Dr. English was called and found the left leg broken in one place above the knee and in three places below the knee. The accident is a very bad one and although the boy will be laid up for some time it is not thought that he will be crippled permanently.
