Surnames: Skippen, Koelkenbeck Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5d.2ADI/3548 Message Board Post: Payette Independent Payette, Idaho Thursday, July 14, 1898 Mr. Koelkenbeck’s Accident. Herman Koelkenbeck who resides on Little Willow creek, met with a serious accident last Thursday afternoon. He was thrown from a hay rake, with the result that his right arm was broken about 3 ½ inches from the shoulder, the bone was also knocked out of the socket and the lower part of the socket was broken off, thus making a very complicated case to handle and one that will disable Mr. Koelkenbeck for some time to come. There seems to have been some delay in summoning a physician. Dr. Skippen of this city reached the case Friday evening, when he fixed Mr. Koelkenbeck up so that he could be brought to Payette.
