THE FLAGLER TRIBUNE
Bunnell, Florida
Thursday, October 9, 1919
Last Friday, at the big orange grove in the southeastern corner of Flagler County a man by the name of Gorigewsky, a Polock, while engaged in spraying the grove, was blown into fragments by the explosion of the spray tank, while the vehicle containing the tank was completely demolished and the mule literally blown to pieces.
The cause of the explosion is thought to have been an excessive charge of gas, the gauge, it is asserted having shown more than three times the required pressure to properly operate the spraying machine. But as there seems to have been no eyewitnesses to the explosion, this statement cannot be verified.
The man’s remains were buried Saturday at Korona under the auspices of the Catholic church, of which he was a member.
