    3. 30 Dec 1910--Alex Cleeton, who moved to western Canada about two years ago, is expected back by the first of March. 30 Dec 1910--Joe Lessley, Jr, the other day while demonstrating what a good pulling team he had, got his collar bone broken and several ribs fractured, and is very lucky to have escaped death. Several teams had failed to move a large boiler that had been loaded on a wagon, when Joe came along and told what his team could do. He was invited to hitch to the wagon and prove his words. He did so and the team started the wagon the first trial. The boiler slid forward and scared the team which started to run. Joe got tangled up in the lines and fell and the boiler fell partially on him. Kathy Bowlin
