ut the old homestead with his parents.
Three brothers and three sisters came

HURT WHILE ASLEEP
Job Ross in a Critical Condition
From Peculiar Acct
dent.
FOUND UNCONSCIOUS ON FLOOR
In SomnambuIistic Spell He
Strikes His Head Against
Wash Stand.

Job Ross, who resides at the home
of his son-in-law, Thomas Bagley.
2017 Sixth avenue, lies in critical
condition, as the result of peculiar
accident. For some years Mr.. Ross,
who is 76 years of age, has been a
somnambulist. starting up violently
during his sleep at various times in
the night.
The accident from which he is now
suffering occurred in a recent spell
of this kind. About o'clock in the
morning the family heard crash in
his room, and on entering found him
lying on the floor in an unconscious
condition. A marble topped wash
stand near where he lay was broken.
Chances of Recovery Slight.
The physician who was summoned,
after an examination, found that he
had sustained a conclusion of the
brain. His hip also was bruised. Con-
seriousness has been revived at times
since the accident occurred, but the
patient always relapses into state of
lethargy. With his years against
him the chances for his recovery are
not cheering.
The only explanation for the acct
dent seems to be that Mr.. Ross started
up in his sleep and leaped violently
from the bed, striking his head against
the marble top of the stand.
