Young Girl Killed In Tractor Accident

Orrville, Ohio. — A tractor accident here claimed the life of 13-year-old Mary Catherine Nussbaum, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Nussbaum of the Kidron community.

Mary Catherine had been operating the tractor when she fell backward and was crushed to death between the drawbar and an embankment. Death apparently was instantaneous.

Funeral services were held at the Bethel Mennonite church, where the family are attending. Her parents, a foster brothr [sic] and her grandparents survive.
