Boy due to work injury loses fingers and faces amputation
The 14 year old son of Mr and Mrs Mildon of 341 Twenty seven Ave sustained severe injuries in a work accident while joining an industrial effort for the war. Two fingers of his right hand were crushed and amputated at Dee Hospital. His 8 year old brother was in the army and another brother previously enlisted. The incident sparked discussion on work duties and patriotism as rail and factory workers faced the push to support wartime production. The rail company and employers promised consideration for the injured boy who hoped to contribute to the war effort through labor.
