Local news item, "West Union Herald," Thursday, Sep 30 1915, in its entirety:
Cleveland Gain of the Block House Hill, while unloading a 100-barrel steel tank at the McKendry Dotson well on Long Run last Saturday, had the misfortune to be struck on the side of the face by the end of a binding pole which was propelled with great force by the weight of the tank. He was badly cut and bruised about his cheek bone; his fellow workmen brought him home at once, and the wound was attended to by Dr. E. T. Wetzel and it is thought nothing serious will result. The accident might have been a great deal worse.
