Killed by a Kick.
WAUCOMA, July 26.—Special:
H. Boes, a well-known and prominent German farmer, living south of town, met sudden and awful death last night. He went to his barn as usual, to see that things were all right, when he was kicked by a vicious horse, from the effects of which he died in less than an hour, Dr. Dodd his physician, being unable to do anything for him.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows the name is spelled Boess and he was born May 25, 1843 and died July 25, 1895. He is buried in the Richfield Cemetery.
