Christian Seyfried was seriously injured Friday afternoon at Forest Hill cemetery, while loading hay onto a wagon.

In some way Seyfried slipped from the wagon, falling on the tines of his pitchfork, which penetrated his chest and shoulder to the depth of several inches.

Dr. Loree was hastily called to the injured man's assistance and he was taken in Dieterle's ambulance to the home of his sister, Mrs. D. Wild, on W. Second street. It was found upon examination of the injuries that the tines of the pitchfork had punctured one of the man's lungs and other serious bruises and contusions were found on his abdomen.
