He was hit with a baseball and later died.
Nellie said that Jim Bane and his brothers could build a "flying gennie" out in the woods.
They would cut down a small tree for a post, then attach a small tree to swivel on the post.
Kind of like a modern merry go round, only a two seater.
Nellie named a son Jim Bane, but could not call him by his name because of the memories. He was "Baney" all of his young life. Later on he was called Jim.
