On This Date in Minnesota History: October 29

October 29, 1919 – Clarence Norby was quite seriously hurt while sliding down a hill in Shevlin, Minn., this afternoon. In some miraculous manner he fell from his sled. A stick lying in the snow flew up and punctured his stomach.

Dr. Campbell of Bagley was called immediately. He dressed the wound and ordered the boy sent to the hospital.

Nick Hanson of Shevlin motored to Bemidji the same evening with Clarence, where the doctors operated immediately.

Clarence is the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Norby of Mallard, Minn.
