LAMONAN HURT IN SPILL


Spokane Driver of of Car Said to Blame Victim.

DAVENPORT, Wash., Sept, 30.—Dan Budd, Lamona farmer, was badiy injured and Henry Ricketts, Spokane, was bruised and cut when Budd's car, driven by Ricketts, was wrecked east of Reardan tonight. Ricketts, it was said, asserts Budd grasped his arm as the car was rounding a curve and the machine went over a steep bank, through a wire fence and turned bottom side up in field.

Budd's right wrist was cut almost to the bone and he suffered greatly: from loss of blood until a passing motorist put a tourniquet on his arm and took him to the Reardan hospital, where he was given first aid, after which he was taken to Spokane.
