Democratic
Advocate, March 25, 1899: Francis J. Englar, a
well-known farmer hurt during tree work
A serious
accident occurred near Linwood last Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Francis J.
Englar, a well-known farmer, was lopping a tree in his yard, and fearing it
would damage the adjacent dwelling in falling, he tied a rope to the top and
attempted to pull it in an opposite direction.
As it was falling
Mr. Englar slipped and fell, while a heavy branch struck and pinned him to the
earth.
He was held in
that position until assistance arrived, when he was extricated while in an
unconscious condition. Medical aid was quickly summoned from Union Bridge, and
everything done to alleviate the sufferer. His oldest son was also severely
bruised.
