Rob Rosenfeld had his face somewhat bruised Monday afternoon in the mill at Unity.

The saw dust had collected around the saw and was clogging it. Rob got the scraper and with the handle was poking the saw dust away, when the saw struck the handle and broke it.

One piece flew and struck him on the nose, smashing down the cartilage and splitting the upper lip, making a rather bad hit.

The injury was not serious owing to the fact that the saw was running very slow. Otherwise, the accident might have proven fatal.
