CHARGE FROM ELECTRIC WELDER FATAL TO ADA, OHIO RESIDENT
Pandora, Ohio. — Francis J. Luginbuhl, 30, a resident of the Ada community for the past 15 months, was instantly killed in an Ada farm services shop on Aug. 25 while repairing a beet loader with an electric welder. Funeral services took place on Aug. 27 at the Ebenezer Mennonite church near Bluffton, of which he was a member, with Rev. Howard Landis officiating.
The coroner issued a verdict of accidental death due to electric shock, although it is not known just how the accident occurred. Luginbuhl was working alone and was found slumped over the loader.
He is survived by his wife, Susannah and a five-month-old son, his mother, Mrs. Mary Luginbuhl of Bluffton, one brother, Maynard, and a sister, Mrs. Alberta Thompson.
