The explosion of the Husted Mill proved to be a much more serious matter than we, knew of our last writing. The mill was a complete wreck the boiler was bursted all to pieces. Four pieces of it weighing three of four hundred pounds was blown two hundred feet in the air. Mr. Husted was thrown about fifty feet across the burs and his wound was not only painful, but fatal and after living from Friday till Tuesday he passed away. Let and Fred were also seriously hurt, Let having several of his ribs broken and Fred having his hip thrown out of place with other injuries. Boiling mud water was thrown all over all of them and it is doubtedful whether they get well or not. Joe Mullinix and Cowan's boy were at the mill, but escaped with slight injuries.
