   3 ELECTROCUTED IN FARM TRAGEDY; 8 WERE ALL BURNED
   Charge Snuffs Out Lives When Drill Rig Contacts High Tension Wire; Lad
   Recovering at Pennock
   
   Charles Meyers, 8, unaware of the tragedy that occurred about 5:30
   Friday afternoon at the Elmer Shellenbarger farm in Campbell township,
   near Lake Odessa, is recovering at Pennock hospital from severe burns on
   his hands and feet and burns on his head suffered when he ran into an
   area charged by electricity.
   
   The tragedy snuffed out the lives of his father, Delbert Meyers, 40;
   Elmer Shellenbarger, 53, and Mr. Meyers' neighbor, Lyle Waldron, 25.
   
   One of the latter two men saved Chuck's life when he ran into the area
   to see what was wrong, he was knocked out of the way but not before the
   current from the high tension wire which instantly electrocuted his
   father had burned the lad painfully.
   
   Mr. Myers (sic) had finished drilling the well at the Shellenbarger
   farm, according to reports, and was moving the rig. The boom made
   contact with the wire and killed the former Hastings well driller.
   
   Mr. Shellenbarger and Mr. Waldron sacrificed their lives attempting to
   aid the victim.
   
   Funeral services for Mr. Meyers were held Monday at 2 PM in the Pickens
   chapel with burial in Lakeside cemetery at Lake Odessa...
