KILLED BY COLT

Ray Man Dies from Injuries Received When Kicked by Animal.

Ray, N. D., March 30.—Louis Whitrock, residing east of Ray, died from the effects of being kicked by a colt.

Mr. Whitrock was in town to get some medicine for his wife and while taking the harness off the colt it suddenly kicked with both feet, hitting Mr. Whitrock in the stomach. The deceased leaves a wife and four small children, the oldest being seven years and the youngest an infant of ten days. It was an awful shock to the community for Mr. Whitrock was well known and liked in the neighborhood. He came from Mankato, Minn., ten years ago and filed on a homestead two and one-half miles east of Ray and has been farming ever since. The remains will probably be shipped to Mankato, Minn., where his parents live.
