Killed by Falling from a Haystack.
New Hampton Gazette:—-Mr. Matthey Stuelp, aged 62 years, fell from a hayrack while helping A. N. Ries at the latter's home just south of town last Friday afternoon, The heavy poles that support the hayfork came loose and started to fall, and in getting out of their way he stepped back too far and fell backward to the ground twelve feet. He was unconscious for a few minutes, but rallied and was brought to his home on Linn avenue south, where medical aid was at once given. His arms and legs were paralyzed, but he remained conscious until late Saturday afternoon, when he became much worse, and died about six o’clock.
