    Auxvasse Review 
    • Auxvasse Boy Badly Hurt
      Kenneth Hatcher Pinned Beneath Truck - Both Arms Broken
      Kenneth Hatcher, 17 years old, son of Mr and Mrs Samuel L Hatcher of Auxvasse, was seriously injured about 3:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon when a Ford dump truck which he was driving went over a twenty-five foot embankment at Auxvasse Creek, three miles south of the town. He was pinned beneath the body of the truck and the sand and gravel which he was hauling.
      He suffered a badly injured hip and two broken arms. He was taken to Callaway Hospital in Fulton by fellow employes of the Pope Construction Company, which has the contract for widening Highway 54.
      ----------------------
      The community was saddened Friday morning when the news came from the Callaway County Hospital that Kenneth Hatcher was dead from injuries he received while driving a truck on the highway south of Auxvasse on Tuesday (May 21, 1929) afternoon. While at the time of the wreck he was known to be very seriously injured, he was so young and full of vigor, his friends were able to hope that he could recover from the injuries. However, it soon was apparent to the physicians and nurses that his injuries were to prove fatal and that he was waging a losing fight. Friday morning his spirit took flight to Him who gave it.
      Kenneth, "Tubby" as all his friends called him on account of his sturdy build and genial and happy disposition, was the son of Mr and Mrs Sam L Hatcher. He was born in Bentley, N.D. on October 11, 1912 where his parents lived at that time, but moved to Auxvasse in 1919, and Kenneth grew to his young manhood in this city. He graduated from the eighth grade of the Auxvasse school just a week before his death, was liked by everyone who knew him, and had just found employment with the Pope Construction Co., being injured the first day he worked.
      His funeral was conducted at Baptist church of this city Saturday afternoon by Rev S G Wood, assisted by the Reb A F Larson and his body laid to rest in the Auzvasse cemetery, south of town.
      Mr and Mrs Hatcher and family have the sympathy of the entire community in their great bereavement.
