Arnoldt Minnie 12 Mr 1984 Age 76 Arnseth, Child Death: 05-21-1921 Page; 1921-2 I A letter received from Mrs. Hans J. Hanson of Bejou, Minn., a former resident of Webster, Mont., contains the sad news that Julius Arnseth, also a former resident of Webster and well known throughout Fallon county, lost his infant son Saturday morning May 7th, in a very tragic manner at his home in Bejou, Minn. The family arose early as usual, breakfasted and it being an exceptionally beautiful warm day, the little son, a year and one-half old, was allowed to stroll out to play, became fatigued lay down beneath a manure spreader with his head directly under one of the rear wheels and fell asleep. About 8:10 A. M., Mr. Arnseth, not noticing his child under the machine, hooked a team to the spreader and drove just a few feet, when he heard what he thought was a peculiar noise and stopped, dismounted and went back to see what was the matter and found his little son lying on the ground with his head mutilated and dead. The hind wheel of the wagon had passed over the child's head, killing him instantly. Mr. Arnseth and family are frantic over the tragedy and it is feared that the shock will be too much for Mr. Arnseth. Many friends and acquaintances in this locality mourn with the bereaved family the loss of the little son.
