Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 39, Number 99, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 August 1907 — Delos Dean Hurt at Fountain Park. [ARTICLE]
Delos Dean Hurt at Fountain Park.
Delos Dean, who is camping at Fountain Park, was indulging in a slide for life at the pleasure grounds there Sunday, in company with a Remington boy. The slide is not built high enough to be dangerous, but the pulleys that slide down the cable are made for only one person and Delos and his frierd were both on one pulley, and in some way lost their hold and fell. Delos fell underneath and his companion fell on his chest and stomack. He was rendered uncon scious, but revived soon after being carried to his tent and when visited by the reporter was being nursed back to cheerfulness by two ot the prettiest girls in or outside the park.
