JAMES PERKINS FUNERAL RITES MONDAY A. M.
Victim of Tragic Ranch Accident Yesterday Afternoon

Funeral services for James W. Perkins, 56, one of the best known citrus growers of the county who lost his life in a tragic accident yesterday afternoon, will be held Monday morning, at 9:00 o'clock, at the Loyd-Frietzsche chapel, with Rev. Berton L. Jennings of the First Methodist church, of which the deceased was an active member, officiating. The remains will be taken to Fresno for cremation.
Surviving Mr. Perkins are his wife, Mrs. Marjorie Perkins; a daughter, Mrs. Mary Marjorie Hauert, and a son, James H. Perkins; a grandson, 1 Charles Eugene Hauert, all of Porterville; a brother, Glenn E. Perkins of Berkeley and a sister, Miss Thirza Perkins of Chicago.

Yesterday afternoon, while he was cultivating in the Perkins brothers grove, drawing a spring-tooth harrow with a caterpillar tractor, the steel harrow hooked onto one of three angle-iron standards supporting a 500- gallon galvanized iron water tank, in the rear of the home of his sister- in-law, Mrs. Hart Perkins. The powerful outfit pulled the standard loose and the tank, which had just been filled with water, crashed down onto the tractor-seat, folding up so as to pin the unfortunate man immoveably beneath it. His neck was broken and he died instantly.

Mrs. Hart Perkins, her attention first attracted by the tearing loose of electric wires running from the tank to the rear of the house, went to the back porch and then noticed that the tractor had stopped. She ran out and saw Mr. Perkins imprisoned under the crushed tank. Unable to get aid at any of the neighboring ranches, from which the menfolks, for one reason or another, had been called away yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Perkins finally telephoned the police station here for help and Constable Roy Hunsaker and a number of others responded. Perkins was released with difficulty, and was pronounced dead by Dr. Thorwald Johnson of this city, who had been called. The unfortunate man had cultivated the grove where he met his death yesterday for many years and had repeatedly in years past drawn his harrow past the tank tower that crashed.

The deceased came to this district from his birthplace in Illinois in 1910 and purchased the citrus property where he has made his home since. He has been active in all phases of the citrus industry during the quarter of a century he has been engaged in it, and had a wide circle of friends, extending to all parts of Tulare county, who were greatly shocked at the tragic occurrence that cost his life.
