Fatal Accident
Word was received here at a late hour Monday night that Adam Henrich,
residing
on the west line of Plymouth Township, had died from the result of an
accident
in the afternoon.
It appears that Mr. Henrich was backing a wagon for some purpose, he being
on
the ground in rear of the wagon. The horses backed up too far and crushed
him
between the wagon and the wire fence. He died in a few hours afterwards. The
deceased has lived in this county nearly fifteen years and leaves a wife and
eight children, the oldest only 13, years of age. the family is almost
destituted as the 40 acres is heavily mortgaged. Le Mars Globe.
Sioux County Herald, Orange City, (Sioux), Iowa, 27 Dec 1888:
Jack Gainor of LeMars charged with the murder of Hamilton at that place a few weeks since will probably be lodged in the Sioux county jail for safe keeping Friday morning.
