and, in their haste. knocked down a little
lady of seventy-five years, who was wait

hard that she could not get up SEEING

By the time the car reached the avenue
she was in such distress that the conduc-

carriage and lifted her in. She was able
to give her number. and so was at once
taken to her home. Her physician found
her thigh bone broken, and her situation fs
