An Unfortunate Accident

While crossing the Mobile &
\ Ohio railroad track at the Jeffer.
! son street crossing Saturday
!, night, Lindsey Monaghan, OF
Saltillo, was struck by the south
1 bound passenger train and re-
ccived serious and painful! iEju-
RES. Mr.. Monaghan had his
] right leg badly fractured below
the knee. his left arm broken
and his left shoulder dislocated,
while he has possibly internal
injuries.
He was placed, as soon as pos.
sible. under the care of Drs,
J Anderson and Elkip, who found
it necessary to amputate his leg
just below the knee.
Mr.. Monaghan's version of the
accident is that as he reached
the side Of the track before at
tempting to cross he was blinded
by the light of the approaching
train and did not realize that it
was so near him. He had several
companions, young men from
Saltillo, none of whom were hurt.
1 Mr.. Monaghan is now at the
home of Mrs. Foster on Jefferson
street, where his wife and father
and friends are attending him.
His physicians feel that he has
good chances to recover and he
is receiving their closest watch.
ing and attention.
