Second worker dies after boiler explosion

ST. MARYS - A south Georgia paper mill worker who was burned in a boiler explosion in August has died. <br> <br> Thirty-three-year-old Brad Foreman died Saturday from injuries he sustained when the boiler blew up at the plant for Durango-Georgia Paper Company in Saint Marys August 17. <br> <br> The boiler was used to cook wood into pulp and produce steam used to dry paper. Another St. Marys man, 53-year-old John Stephenson died in September. <br> <br> One other man remains in critical condition at the University of Florida burn center. <br> <br> The company says the explosion had nothing to do with the company&#39;s decision last week to close the plant in mid-November. More than 900 employees will lose their jobs from the mill, which opened in 1941. <br> <br> Federal investigators have not issued a report identifying the cause of the blast.
