INJURY:
WORKED TWO HOURS TO FREE YOUTH
A Marulan grazier worked for two hours on Saturday to free a station hand pinned down in a bog by an over turned tractor.
The station hand was admitted to Goulburn Base Hospital suffering from a probable fractured pelvis.
He is Laurence Weston, 18. Weston was X-rayed yesterday and his condition to-day was described as satisfactory. For the past 18 months he has been employed on Mr. E. T. Holt's property, "Mount Pleasant", Marulan.
On Saturday, Mr. Holt sent Weston on a tractor to get some gravel near a river on the property.
When the youth did not return, Mr. Holt searched for him and found him pinned down by the tractor, which had over turned in a boggy patch. Mr. Holt used a spade, to dig out Weston and jacked up the tractor to get him clear.
He put Weston in a jeep and was met by Goulburn Ambulance which took the injured youth to the Base Hospital.
