Ste. Genvevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Aug. 4, 1883 A Ruma, Ill., correspondent of the Red Bud Courier writes under date of July 24th: A sad occurrence took place one mile north of town, at the residence of John FARRELL's, yesterday morning about 8 o'clock. Louis MISPLAY, who was in his employ, met his death by falling from a hay rake. No one was present at the time; but Mrs. FARRELL hearing someone hallowing at a horse and looking toward the barn saw the horse and rake coming without the driver. She hurried to the place and found MISPLAY with his legs entangled in the line dragging after the rake. She undid it, but he was lifeless. After securing aid and pouring water on him he bagan breathing, but it did not last long. It is plainly seen where the rake ran over a stump, and he was dragged from there on, although the horse did not seem the least frightened. His right arm was broken in two places and fearfully bruised about the head and body. The unfortunate man was about twenty-two years of age, and has a brother and two sisters, one is the widow of Henry O'HARA, of this place, and the other the wife of the well-known Mr. BABB, of Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Deceased was adopted in his young days by H. MUDD, Jr., and was well thought of by all his friends, who to-day followed his remains to the cemetery of the Catholic Church, in which he has always been an upright and virtuous member.
