Lowell Man Meets Terrible Death.

Lowell, Ind., July 8. —Ed Knisley, son of Mrs. David Knisley of this city, was killed at Grant Park while working in the brick mill. He was working at the mixer and in an unknown way fell into the machine and was badly mangled. He was seen by one of the workmen but could not be reached in time to keep him from going into the machine. It was an awful accident and brought horror to his fellow workmen. The mixer is comprised of knives which are running at a high rate of speed and mangled his entire body. The body was removed from the machine as quickly as possible. The funeral was held Sunday and the remains were brought to Lowell for interment, which took place in the Lowell cemetery. He leaves a wife and his mother and brothers and sisters to mourn hit death.
