George Dillard Reynolds, 56 years old, a well known farmer, was accidentally killed Saturday when he fell from a load of hay on the farm of Mrs. W. W. Quinn on the Chrisman Mill road, four miles east of Nicholasville.
Mr. Reynolds was standing on a wagon putting the baled hay into the barn when the hooks slipped and he fell a distance of about 12 feet to the ground. His neck was broken and his head was crushed. He lived only about ten minutes. He was being assisted in the work by his son-in-law, Alexander Walker and Edward Stinnett.
Mr. Reynolds was a native of Jessamine county and is survived by his widow, Mrs. Belle Reynolds, his son and five daughters, Mrs. Mary Miller, Mrs. Alexander Walker and Misses Toy, Myrtle and Dorothy Reynolds.
