Peavey commenced his shift as engineer at three 0'clock, he arrived at the plant, and entered the engine room to relieve the day engineer. He started to remove his outer clothing to put on his overalls, in which he was accustomed to work, and while he was engaged in putting the overalls on, one of the workmen passed by, Peavey playfully made a kick at him, and the workman kicked back at him in sport. Peavey jumped backward to avoid the kick, and in doing so, his overalls which had not been fastened up, caught in a line of shafting, which run through the engine room, and in the twinkling of an eye, the clothing was wound about in the shafting, and the unfortunate engineer was rapidly whirled about by the revolving shaft. It only required a minute to shut off the power and stop the rotating shaft but in that time the engineer's body was whirled with fearful force about the shaft, and when he was released he was in an unconscious condition, bleeding from the nostrils and mouth, and apparently seriously injured. The workmen immediately bound up the cuts and wounds as well as they could and telephoned for the ambulance. He was then carried to the home of his brother-in-law A.E. Fish, half a mile east of the plant, where he had been making his home, and here he was attended to until the ambulance of the Pittsburg Undertaking Co. arrived, when he was removed to the Mount Carmel hospital, where Doctors McLaren and Hazlewood treated the injuries. At the hospital it was found that his right leg had been crushed below the knee and that he had received other bad cuts and wounds, but the most serious injuries were the internal ones, and it was seen at once that recovery would be but a hope. He was uncousious and never regained consiousness. He lingered on untill about eleven o'clock Friday night, when he passed away. Peavey was a single man, about 46 years of age, He had never been married and for several years had been making his home with his brother-in -law. Mr Fish. He has lived in Pittsburg for many years and was well known and esteemed by all as a steady going man. When the powder works were opened he secured a position as engineer and was respected by his employees as a competent and able offical in that capacity. The funeral occured yesterday afternoon at four o'clock from the home near the powder works, the funeral being conducted by Rev. J.H. Givson pastor of the United Presbyterian Church.
