MAJOR LEE MEETS WITH
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Mrs. Harry Lee left yesterday for
Port au Prince, called by a cable
gram announcing the serious illness
of her husband, Major Lee, who was
thrown from his horse in one of the
mountain passes of Haiti, and is suf-
ferring from conclusion of the brain.
Mrs. Lee will have the sincerest
sympathy of many friends here and
throughout the United States, where
her distinguished husband is well
known, being one of the most popu-
lar officers in the service.
1t is a remarkable coincidence that
only few short months ago, Cap
tain Fitshugh Robards was thrown
from his horse, also at Port au
Prince, also suffering conclusion of
the brain, from which he did not re-
cover. He and Major Lee were close
friends and occupied the same quar-
tiers.
While the condition of Major Lee
is considered very serious, there is
a possibility of his recovery, and the
many friends of Mrs. Lee and her
husband, will sincerely hope that she
may find him much improved when
she reaches Haiti.
