    Hit by a thrown baseball at Brookfield Ball Park, Linn County, Missouri.


    Killed In A Baseball Game
    Sphere Struck Purdin, Mo., Player Near the Heart.
    Brookfield, Mo., July 28. – Rollie Bagley of Purdin was killed yesterday in a ball game between Purdin and New Garden when a baseball struck him near the heart.
    The Kansas City Star, Kansas City, Missouri. Monday, 28 July 1919, page 1.


    Death Was Almost Instant
    The Brookfield Budget give the following account of the accident at Brookfield Sunday which caused the death of Rollie Bagley, a brief mention of which was made in the Constitution Monday.
    A very regrettable death was that of Rollie Bagley Sunday afternoon while playing ball at Powell Park.
    Young Bagley was a member of a ball team from Purdin’s rural districts that was matched up against a baseball nine of young farmers from Yellow Creek township.
    The fatal accident occurred during the first half of the eighth inning. Bagley was at bat and James Ridgeway of the rival team was pitching when a ball served by the latter hit the unfortunate batter over the heart knocking him to his knees. When he regained his feet he remarked that he was all right, but when he attempted to take a few steps, his companions say, he fell heavily to the ground, death, to all appearances, resulting instantly.
    His getting hit with the ball is conceded to be largely due to the fact that Bagley was a left-handed striker, and no one more keenly regrets the sad affair than Pitcher Ridgeway.
    The body was taken to Ruck’s undertaking rooms and prepared for burial and later removed to the home in Purdin.
    This was the third game for these two rural teams; one game was played at Purdin two weeks ago and a second game at Kersley grove east of New Garden a week ago Sunday. Each team had scored a victory and Sunday’s game stood 9 to 8 in favor of Yello Creek when so unfortunately ended.
    Rollie Bagley was 22 years old, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Bagley of Purdin. He was an industrious young farmer, and was united in marriage August 1916, with Miss Lillie Ponder of Jamaica, Ill, who with a fifteen-months-old child survive. Other near relatives are: his parents, four brothers and one sister.
    The wife and two brothers of the deceased attended the game Sunday.
    The funeral was held at two o’clock Tuesday at the Christian church at Purdin.

    Accidental Wound Proved Fatal
    On Wednesday of last week, three sons of Mr. and Mrs. G.T. Bagley of Enterprise township went fishing an hunting, taking with them a target rifle. The boys were Lee, aged 15, Urbie, aged 10, and Milo, aged 6.
    When in the timber, Lee put down the rifle and Milo picked it up and accidently discharged it, the ball hitting Urbie in the hip. The wound was not considered dangerous though the physicians were unable to locate the ball.
    From the effects of the wound the boy died Sunday evening at 6 o’clock, aged 10 years, 6 months and 27 days. The funeral was from the Bagley residence to Grantville cemetery where the services were conducted by Rev. Fitzgerald.
    The grief stricken family have the sympathy of a large circle of friends in their bereavement.
