Logger Fatally Hurt.

Morton, Sept. 9 ---- The sudden death of A. C. Tisch, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. G. I. Gillespie, of Morton, word of which reached here late last week, has occasioned universal regret. According to the account coming to Morton, while Mr. Tisch was employed at McKenna loading logs, he was struck in the head and died en route to the hospital in Tacoma.

The first message received here by his wife was to the effect that he had been injured and wanted to see her and their baby. Nothing was said concerning the seriousness of the injury. After she had left, her parents received a message telling of the death of Mr. Tisch. Mr. and Mrs. Gillespie left at once for McKenna.
