Daigle, an employe of the Tutnam Light and Power compaay, '8 living this morning, but he will neer come nezzer to death and escape ~hin b= di¢ Tresday afternoon, when he re ceived the full effect of the 2,300 vilt current at the power company’s piant and was hurled to the floor uncoa- scious. A second more of the contact would have shocked him into eterni- ty. As it was, he recovered in a few minutes and went home, and it is be- lieved that he will suffer no serious after effects. The exact manner in which Mr. Dai- gle recelved the shock is uncertain, Changes are being made in wiring ar- rangement of the switchboard, and Mr. Daigle was stripping the end of one of the wires when the invisible power attacked him. The hand which held | the wire was somewhat burned, and a miece of flesh snipped out of the thumb and one finger. The force of the cur- rent likely caused Mr. Daigle to be hurled away from the wire, breaking the contact and saving his life. An- other employe immediately pulled out the main switch, cutting off the light and power all over the city for a short time. Telephone messages for a physician brought Dr. Marguerite Bullard, and Mr. Dalgle was revived. His counte- nance plainly showed the effécts of the ordeal through which he had passed, and he was not like himself for some time. The electrical workers about the city | consider his escape miraculous. No Game at Southbridge.
