ASKS $4,000 FOR
PERSONAL INJURIES

A $4,000 damage suit against the
Pennsylvania Railroad company has
been filed in circuit court, by Edward
Nolan, for injuries which he alleges he
received while employed by the COM
pany.
According to the suit he was serious
ly injured on October 10, 1917. when
he was hurled from the top of a box
car into the road. He said that he
was in charge of "cut" of cars. run
ming west on the tracks in the Penn
sylvania yards in Richmond, and that
another string of cars was sent along
the same track in the opposite direct
ion. In the collision which resulted
Nolan said that he was thrown from
the top of one of the box cars of the
first cut. and received injuries to his
spine, causing his legs to be paralyzed
below the knees. He has been unable
to leave his bed since and his lower
limbs are encased in a plaster of paris
cast he says.
