Samuel Patton, for several years m utility man at the New Eng- Granite works, had a close call this week. and probably but for the efficiency of a stomach pump would have passed to the great beyond. He operates an automobile for the con- cern and sterted for the Red Stone . v to bring two of the employes ck to the main plant. On the way he stopped at the home of a friend to witness the operation of a chicken incubatof. While there the friend asked him to have a glass of sweet cider and Patton accepted. A man about the place was told to go and get the cider and was reminded that Rhere was a bottle of cider near the wellar way and to get that The con- fents of the bottle were poured into @ glass and Patton partook thereof. Immediately after swallowing the fluid he became choked up and suf- fered from a burning sensati-n in the ghroat and chest, and he ha : difficul- 1y In breathing. He called for some baking soda and water. After drinking that he felt some relief, and drove the automobile to the Red Stone quarry. ©On arival there he was semi-con- scious and unable to speak, falling to the ground as he stepped from the au- tomobile. He was placed back in the machine and was rushed to a physi- cian’s office. A’ stomach pump was put into operation and the man gradually revived. It was discovered that the cider had been put into a battle that contained a quantity of water glass and which gave the mixture the appearance of cider, just what the friend, Pattor, and ers concerned, supposed that jt ure sweet cider.
