Farmer Dies Under, Overturned Tractor Accident on Hill, Near Breckenridge Takes The Life Of Chester H. BASHFORD, 70
A Breckenridge man, Chester H. BASHFORD was killed yesterday afternoon, when a farm tractor he was driving on a country road went out of control and over turned pinning him beneath the stirring wheel. Mr. BASHFORD was pulling a 14 foot wagon loaded with wheat and down a steep hill three miles southwest of town.
Trooper Glen Calhoun who with the Caldwell County Sheriff, Maurice Robinson investigated the accident, said BASHFORD apparently lost control on the downhill grade and that the tractor went into the ditch and overturned. The steering wheel pressed against his chest. The wagon went into the ditch, but did not turn over.
The accident apparently happened around 4:30 PM o'clock. Lindy Neihaus happened along about then, BASHFORD asked him to take off him, but Neihaus had nothing to move it with. He ran to his brothers, Ted Neihaus, who lives a quarter of a mile south, and called for an ambulance.
Neihaus said that he was gone for about three minutes and that when he returned, Mr. BASHFORD was still alive and breathing, but was unable to talk. He died shortly there after.
A wrecker was brought to remove the tractor, and his body was taken to Mead Pitts Funeral Home in Breckenridge. Arrangements are pending.
He married Karin Ellen KIMBLON, she was born, July 21, 1895 in Weeping Water, Nebraska, the daughter of Oscar KIMBLON and Ellen Marie FONSON. She preceded him in death, December 25, 1957.
