A letter received yesterday by Mr.
Morgan L. OFT from Minister Charles
Burdett Hart, from Bogota, United
states OF Colombia, gives the details of
q severe accident he met with on Aug
ust 2, near the capital city.
Mr.. Hart was accompanied by his
family, on his way down the mountains
to spend a few weeks in the lower
country. He was riding u horse. In
that mountainous country horsemen, in
riding down hills, use hrichen to keep
the saddle from slipping. Suddenly the
brlchen broke, and the horse Mr.. Hart
was riding became fractions and threw
him to the ground, breaking his right
leg Just above the ankle. It was clean
break and will knit all right. Mr..
Hart was taken to the home Of fam
lily with which he was acquainted near
by, and medical aid was summoned, ar
irving twelve hours after the accident.
As soon as the Colombian government
heard OF the accident a special train
was sent to meet Mr.. Hart, and convey
him to his residence in Bogota. When
the letter was written the physician
pronounced him as doing well.
