My own grandfather nearly died the same way, from a vicious injury in the sawmill where he worked near the Stearns KY area in 1905. Was rescued and nursed back to health by my CHITWOOD grandmother, (from Winfield TN) whom he ended up marrying. It makes me shudder every time I think of it. Nancy from Michigan "Marriage is grand.
