Sandy Shields is recuperating at her home one mile south and one-half mile west of Ellston after a harrowing accident. Shields was driving a combine traveling on a gravel road near their home when the hydraulic
line broke and the combine started losing oil, according to her husband. The machinery went back down, finally landing upright in a ditch with Shields still at the wheel. Shields suffered whiplash and bruises.
