PRESENCE OF MIND
Of Young Woman Saved Ellison Gill
bert from Serious Injury.

Ellison Gilbert of Middle street had
a narrow escape. about 2.2O p NJ,
Thursday. The aged gentleman, who
is almost blind, started to cross Water
street, in front of Bowditch & Web
ster's drug store and stepped directly
in front of an automobile. which was
being driven very slowly mp through
the street towards the bridge by Miss
Florence Gannett.
Mr.. Gilbert fell between the two
front wheels of the machine and was
dragged only short distance before
Miss Gannett, who showed great pres
ence of mind, succeeded in stopping
the auto. The wheels did not go over
the. fallen man and, from the state
ments of eye witnesses, it was not the
fault of the driver of the machine. for
she was driving slowly and did not
know that Gilbert was blind.
Gilbert was assisted from under the
machine by ElIery Folsom and the
chauffeur, who was riding in the rear
seat, when the accident happened. He
was carried into physicians office
nearby, where he was given proper
medical attention. 1t was found that
his left ear was quite badly Iacerated
and it required several stitches to close
the wounds. a few skin bruises were
found on other parts of his body but
none that were considered of serious
nature. Mr.. Gilbert was taken from
the doctors office TO his horne on
Middle street and when he arrived at
the house he was feeling quite strong,
being able to walk into the house
without any assistance.

ton was very faint about intending
in California to change his name TO
George IL. Stuart, and admitted that
while he was in New York he went
under the name of A. S. Willis.
