LOST HIS LEG.
Bar Harbor Man Fell Under Train
at Ellsxvorfh Rails

Bar HarbOr Man Fell Under Train
at Ellsworth Falls.
George Brown, of Bar Harbor, lost his
left leg below the knee by being run over
by the train arriving at Ellsworth Falls at
a little before O'Clock Saturday evening.
Brown was painter, and had finished
the seasons work at Bar Harbor. He was
on his way to Bangor to find work there.
He got off the train at Ellsworth Falls for
some reason, and after the train had
started, and as he was running alongside
and about to jump on, misjudged the dis
tance, and went down between the car
and the platform, his left leg falling
across the rail.
Bystanders pulled him out as quickly as
possible, but not until the leg had been
nearly severed midway between the knee
and ankle. DR.. l.. w. Hodgkins was
called, and accompanied the injured man
to the Bar Harbor hospital, the western
train being held at Ellsworth Falls for
time while the necessary arrangements
were made. The leg was amputated just
below the knee and the patient is getting
along well.
Mr.. Brown lived in Ellsworth for time,
about ten years ago, and has since lived in
Bangor and Bar Harbor. He has a son
living in Bar Harbor.
