Where was OSHA?? In a message dated 12/24/2008 3:37:08 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, JohnOBrien@kc.rr.com writes: "The Kansas City Daily Times" (Missouri) Tuesday, April 12, 1881 WYANDOTTE. Yesterday about noon the bank that is being cut away by Fowler Bros. at the west end of the iron bridge, fell with a crash, bringing with it some twenty tons of earth, completely burying two of the men working there, named George FRANKLIN of Wellington, Kas., and Wyle GLASS of this city. Dr. GENTRY happened to be passing at the time and waited till the men were dug out. Both were more or less injured, FRANKLIN having his right hip dislocated and some severe internal injuries, while GLASS only received some bad bruises. The former was attended by Dr. GENTRY, and having no home or friends was sent to the county jail, while the latter was removed home. Considering the number that were working on the ground it is almost a miracle that some were not instantly killed. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo8 ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to KANSASCITY-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message **************One site keeps you connected to all your email: AOL Mail, Gmail, and Yahoo Mail.
