SKULL FRACTURED AGAIN
While assisting in the threshing at Joseph Steinhauer's just north of
this city, Saturday afternoon, Mr. Herman Fanslau was dangerously
injured when part of the blower pipe of the threshing outfit fell upon
him striking him on the head and shoulder. The blow in the head is very
serious. This is so because the injury is on the same spot where Mr.
Fanslau sustained a fracture of the skull four years ago. At that time
something fell down an elevator shaft at the Hamilton plant striking him
on the head as he stood below. He hovered between life and death for
some time but recovered completely. For the past few days Mr. Fanslau's
recovery has been doubtful and it is not known whether he will recover.

For the past two years he had been confined to his bed after
suffering a stroke.
Arrangements for the funeral have not been completed. The body was taken to the Jansky funeral home.
Born in Germany on the Polish border on March 3, 1867, Mr. Fanslau came to this country when he was 17 years of age.
