  FATALLY CRUSHED UNDER BIG ROLLER Milton Borman Succumbs to Injuries Suffered on Farm By Record Correspondent LINWOOD, Sept. 10 - Milton H. Borman, 30, formerly of Einwood and Kitchener, was fatally injured on a farm near Clifford yesterday when the team he was driving ran away with a land roller. Borman was found by his wife. about 11.50 a.m. when she went to call him for dinner. Badly mangled, he had been caught in the roller and dragged about the field when the horses ran away. The horses had stopped in the orchard when discovery of the accident was made by Mrs. Borman. Borman and his wife, formerly Edith Schlueter of Linwood, were working on the farm of Wilfred Domm, who resides halfway between Clifford and Mildmay. Borman as hired man and his wife as housekeeper. Early yesterday Borman had driven Domm to the station where he boarded a train for Toronto to attend the Canadian National Exhibition on Farmers' Day. Returning to the farm, Borman planned the land rolling. He hitched up Domm's team, however, instead of the team which he had been accustomed to use. The owner's team, it is said, are noted as runaways. While no one saw the accident. It is believed that Borman was rolling along the fence line and that the roller went over a rail which extended from the fence. Believed frightened by the noise, the horses ran away and Borman was thrown from the roller and became caught in the tongue. He was dragged about the field and when found, part of his body was under the roller. Borman was the youngest son of the late Daniel Borman who died in December last year near Linwood. Surviving are his wife, to whom he was married three years ago, two brothers, Daniel of Kitchener and Clarence of Waterloo, two sisters, Mrs. C. Schutz of St. Jacobs, and Mrs. C. Hannenberg of Guelph, and his stepmother, Mrs. Daniel Borman of Linwood. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock from the Letter and Dreisinger Funeral Home, Waterloo, to Waterloo Mount Hope cemetery for interment.
