"According to a mention in the Pitman column in the Carlinville paper of 9 Sept 1897 that "12 to 14" years earlier, William Fishback had "lost a limb" due to thresher engine blowing up.  I tried to find mention of this accident (two people were killed) in the papers of the day however I was unsuccessful."
