P. LIERMAN, 39, FATALLY HURT WHILE HAYING
Valders Farmer Loses His Life When He Attempts To Stop Runaway Team Thursday
Attempting to stop a team of runaway horses, hauling a load of hay
through a field, and beyond the control of his wife, proved fatal
late Thursday afternoon to Paul Lierman, 39, prominent town of Liberty
farmer, on his farm, a mile north of the village of Valders. He was
crushed under the horses hoofs and the wheels of the wagon and died
before the arrival of a physician.
Mr. and Mrs. Lierman were alone in the field at the time of the accident.
They had completed the loading of the rig and Mrs. Lierman had started
to drive the team toward the barn. Suddenly the horses took fright and
started to run away. Mr. Lierman, seeing the plight of his wife, ran
forward to cut off the runaway team. In his attempt to grab the bridles
of the horses, however, Lierman missed his hold and fell beneath the
horse's hoffs and the wheelsof the load.
Dies Before Physician Arrives
When Mrs. Lierman was able to bring the team to a stop she hastened to
the side of her husband and found him fatally injured. His chest was
crushed and one of his lungs punctured. A neighbor who happened along
telephoned to Valders and Dr. W.A. Rauch responded at once. When he
arrived Mr. Lierman had breathed his last. The remains were removed to
the Berge undertaking parlors at Valders. There will be no inquest.
Had Model Farm
The deceased only a few months ago had completed the erection of a new
farm home and remodeled all his barns. His ninety acre farm was one of
the most modern and up-to-date in the county. Besides his widow he is
survived by one son (private), a step-mother, Mrs. Marie Lierman at
Milwaukee, a step-sister Anna and two step-brothers, Norbert and Gordon,
all at Milwaukee.
Funeral services will be held from the Lierman home, a mile north of
Valders on Monday afternoon.
