    DODSLAND - On Tuesday George Givens, of Kelfield, was driving his wagon containing 2½ tons of coal, when he became somewhat crowded by a passing motor which caused the team to take fright. Mr. Given was thrown in front of the wagon and the team hauled the load over him. He was rushed to hospital here where it was at first thought he had sustained a fractured thigh, but investigation proved he had received serious internal injuries. There is little hope of his recovery.
