Terrible Accident at Monona.
At about 4 o’clock Tuesday afternoon while the little four old son of Wm. O’Shey was playing about the feed cooker at Fred Wellman's feed mill, in some manner unknown to anyone he fell into the tank of scalding hot feed and fairly cooked to death. It is thought he fell in while the person attending it was inside looking after some machinery. The little boy lived about two hours after being taken out.______________
