-----------------------
In the throes of lockjaw since last Friday, Joseph Haynie, 15 years old, 108 East Hamburg street, died at 6 o'clock last evening at Mercy Hospital.

Three weeks ago while trying to board an auto-truck of the Maryland Ice Cream Company, which was being run by one of his friends, Haynie fell. His leg caught in the chain of the machine, and it was torn open. Grease and dirt got into the wound, which Haynie treated himself at home until he began to feel pains.

Going to Mercy Hospital, Haynie consulted Dr. Walter L. Brown. He washed the wound carefully, fearing tetanus would develop. Haynie complained Friday of pains in his neck. This was the expected symptom of lockjaw.

Early Saturday morning Haynie's jaws were locked and he was unable to eat or take medicine. Though realizing that it was next to impossible to save the man's life, Dr. Brown injected anti-tetanus serum. Instead of being relieved, Haynie's arms and legs stiffened. members of his family were summoned to his bedside yesterday and were told he could not survive the day.

Haynie is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Haynie, a brother, Clifford Haynie, and two sisters, Mrs. Andrew Airey and Miss Pearl Haynie.
