BROKE THIGH AND THREE RIBS.
Annette Coles is Suing Joseph H.
Koch for $4,000 Damages

Annette Coles, a negro laundress, filed
suit in the City Court yesterday against
Joseph H. Koch, administrator of the es-
tate of Barbara A. Koch, claiming dam
ages for personal injuries in the sum of
5000 The plaintiff is represented by
Messrs. Twiggs & oliver and r. j. Travis.
The plaintiffs petition recites that some
time ago she rented from the defendant,
representing the estate of his wife, a
house on Arnold street. 1t appeared at
the time to be in good condition, but she
afterwards discovered that the steps were
out of repair and needed attention. She
reported the matter to the owner of the
premises and he promised, so the petition
AYERS. to have necessary repairs made.
While she was conscious of the fact that
repairs were necessary, she yet did not be-
lieVe that the steps Were dangerous or
would fall beneath her weight, and there
fore continued to use them.
on Nov. s. 1899, she started to leave
her home and walked out to the steps.
Scarcely had she set foot upon the first
of them when the stairs gave way be
meath her and precipitated her to the
ground, fracturing the bone of her thigh
and breaking three ribs on her right side.
From these injuries she claims to have
been confined to her bed for seven weeks,
and even now is scarcely able, with the
aid of a crutch, to hobble along the
streets.
AT the time of the accident she earned
the sum of Sc per week as a washerwo-
man. She claims that her ability to pur-
sue this useful vocation in the future has
vanished, and that at her time of life it
is impossible for her to learn the intri-
cacies of some new business. For the
injuries to her person and her health,
for che loss of her earning power, and as
n the ALLEGED paTplaeCDpG =
of the defendant in permitting the steps
to remain in a condition that made the
injuries possible she considers damages
in the sum of 5000, not exorbitant and
prays that ths amount will be allowed
her by the court.
