Narrow Escape in Kentucky Fire Crushes Lusk in Debris
Mrs. J W Baldwin returned from Paris Kentucky after being called for the accident that Shed Lusk, her nephew, met weeks ago. The young man narrowly escaped death when walls fell during a fire and pinned him under debris. Water nearly drowned him as his head rested on a brick and his body was trapped. He was rescued but badly injured and will require time to recover. Lusk spent time in the city where he was well known among the youth and popular with many who know him.
