Manchester Democrat, Wednesday, Jan 01, 1902, Manchester, IA, Page: 1

Jesse Trickey, night electrician, met with a serious accident at the Manchester Light, Heat & Power Co.’s. Plant last Friday morning. He was engaged in blowing out the flues to one of the big boilers by means of steam, which was conducted by a rubber hose, when the hose broke and let the hot steam in his face. He was badly scaled about the head, but his eyesight which was thought at first to be destroyed will not be impaired.
