KILLED BY HIS OWN TEAMS.
A Fairbanks Farmer, aged 70, Became a Victim to a Runaway Team.
Marwood Bradley, an aged farmer, was instantly killed in a runaway accident near Fairbanks, in Buchanan county, last Friday. He was loading a load of milk to the creamery when his team became frightened and ran away. The old gentleman was thrown under the wagon. The wheels, weighted down by several hundred pounds of milk, passed over the body of the man and crushed out his life.
The deceased was 70 years of age and for forty years of that time had been a resident near Fairbank.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Fairbank Cemetery and that he was born April 26, 1834 and died March 12, 1904.
