Tll.l.KR VICTIM OF STORM Former Kershaw County Man Din at llottpilul From Injuria. W. Henry Tiller, M, 2226 (?ei vais street, Columbia, who was injured Wednesday afternoon when his farm houM- at Adams mill caved in as a result of the tornado, di?sd at the Baptist hospital last evening about o'cl.uk The death of Mr. Tiller will bung aorrow to hundred* pf friend# in Co lumbia. He was a man of winning personality and his friends were legion. Mr. Tiller was of a jovial disposi- j tirm and even after he was brought to the hospital, maimed and broker; by 'the heavy timber that fell upon him during the tornado, he was j joking and amMlng. He ^related the j details of the tragedy to members of his family, and from all appear <; i litst it seemed as if he might recover. The injuied man took a sudden re lapse yesterday .and by late afternoon was fast sinking. Mr. Tiller was plowing Wednesday morning when he noticed the ap proaching storm. He hat! been out ai his farm for two or three days, an 1 was endeavoring to get his ground in shape for the year's crop. Seeing the. heavy, low hanging clouds he hurried to the house and was in the act of lowering a window when the wind took the structure with all its ?force and crushed it to the ground. There was hardly a strip of timber large enough to make a stretcher to bear Mr. Tiller to the roadside, so that he might be hurried Jo a Colum bia hospital. Neighbors who had es eaped during the tornado hurried to him and after much labor succeeded in making a stretcher for the maimed man, whose head and body were bad ly hurt by the falling timber. < Even after Mr. Tiller had been placed upon the stretcher the rescue party had to cut its way to the high way. Many trees had fallen, and had barricaded the branch road leading out to the main thoroughfare. The injured man arrived at the hospital late in the afternoon, and everything was done to save his life. W. Henry Tiller was born at Bethune, Kershaw County. He had lived in Columbia practically all of his life. Besides Miss Lessie Tiller, his daughter, Mr. Tiller leaves two l children, Mrs. Thomas W. Hornsby of | Col umbia and Charles E. Tiller of Turner, Mich. He is also survived by one sister. Mrs. Waters of Bethune. Dr. J. I.
