 Bruised and Shaken Up.

Thomas J. Kehr, proprietor of a store at the corner of Bank and Ti1ley street, New London. is at his home, 317 Ocean avenue, suffering from in iuries received by being thrown from the rear platform of a trolley car on Wednesday evening.

As the car was rounding the curve at the corner of Bank street and Montauk avenue the rear wheel of the car split the switch and started up Bank street. The sud- den lurching of the car threw Kehr violently into the street.
 He was taken to his home where he was found to be severely bruised and injured. The exact extent of his injuries is not known. Trolley traffic was tied up for half hour on account of the accident while the car was being put back on the track.
