One day last week while John
Wicker was driving an iron wedge
into the handle of a hammer, in
VIM. Treweek's shop, piece OF iron
nearly as large as the head of an
eight penny nail flew from the
wedge and entered his left eye. The
piece lodged below the eyeball, and
remained there fifteen hours before
it was extracted. When the piece
was removed the ball of the eye did
not seem to be badly cut, and it is
not likely that the eye will be per-
manently injured.
