MAN IN A CHURN.
X REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE. NEW PLYMOUTH, January 18. An extraordinary experience befell Mr I. Bungay, a buttermaker at an Inglewood butter factory, to-day. He stopped a large churn, put his head inside, and was struck by a huge lump of butter, which dazed him. He fell forward into the churn, and at the same time unwittingly set the machine in motion. Revolving inside the machine, he was bruised and in clanger of suffocation by the mass of butter. When an assistant saw his legs protruding he quickly reversed the churn, and finally extricated Bungay. Medical aid was immediately forthcoming, and Bungay was found to be dazed and suffering from bruises.
