SALUDA MAN CRUSHED
TO DEATH BY TRACTOR
Donald Revis, 41, of Saluda
Route 1, was crushed and burned
to death by a farm tractor in a
logging accident Thursday about
4 p. m., on Piney Mountain, ac
cording to Chief of Police Fred
Morris of Saluda.
Revis was hauling poplar blocks
down the mountain with Herbert
Pace, 18, and Grady Gosnell, 18,
both of Saluda Route No. 1, at the
time of the tragedy, Mr. Morris
said.
It is reported that the tractor
struck a stump, reared upwards
and then toppled on the three men.
Pace and Gosnell leaped to safety
but Revis was pinned beneath the
wreckage and the gasoline from
the tank of the tractor burst into
flames, and all efforts to extricate
Mr. Revis were impossible.
The gasoline exploding also set
fire to the tractor and woodlands
in the vicinity. Revis’ body was
burned beyond recognition before
it could be removed, Chief Morris
stated.
Patrolman J. E. Ramsey of
the State Highway Department,
in company with Polk County
Coroner Oti.s Dalton, viewed the
scene of the accident, and Mr.
Dalton stated that no inquest is
planned. The body was taken to
the McFarland Funeral Home in
Trvon.
Revis was a native and lifelong
resident o^ the Saluda section of
Polk and Henderson counties, and
had engaged in farming, wood
work, logging operations and rock
masonry.
Surviving are the widow, the
former Mss AvloP Rhodes: three
sons. McRae, Steve and Stanley
