Working at the stone crusher at the Eastern Flint and Spar Company at Sextonville, Baltimore county, yesterday morning Oliver Thompson, 43 years old, 413 South Monroe street, had his left arm and leg almost torn off and died in the early afternoon at Franklin Square Hospital, where he was taken after the accident in the Southwestern district ambulance.
Death was due to loss of blood. Immediately after the accident Patrolman Frank Bartcher, of the Mount Winans force, was communicated with and telephoned to the Southwestern Police Station for an ambulance. An improvised couch was made for the man.
The ambulance reached the scene a short time later, and the man, who was then dying, was forced to take the rough ride from Sextonville to the hospital. The place is west of the old Baltimore viaduct over Gwynn's run, south of Wilkens avenue, and is difficult to access. The roads are rough. Before he reached the hospital Mr. Thompson had lost consciousness. At the hospital he was attended by Dr. G. B. Kleffer and every effort was made to save his life.
