Loses Finger In Car Mishap
Remo Braithwaite of Ephraim lost the end of the middle finger on his left hand up to the first joint in an accident with his car on January 21, 1949.
He had been to his farm out of Manti to do his chores and was just ready to return when the accident occurred. He was placing a cover on his radiator when the fan belt caught his hand and pulled it into the fan before he realized what had happened. He was then unable to get his car going and had to walk to the farm of Eugene Carpenter, from where Mr. Carpenter took him to a Manti doctor.
Mr. Braithwaite has been in much distress, as his whole hand is badly bruised and the two fingers next to the one he had cut off were cut up and bruised.
