The only apparent injury. the ply
sicians say, is a slight paralysis Of
the eve. Although the missile Is
lodged in a vital spot. Mrs. Fox Is
resting comfortably and eats heartily.
She Is the mother OF eleven children.
Physicians at the hospital said they
will not attempt to remove the buttet
ut this time because OF the delicate
operation required. The only danger
they say. is infection. but there IL
not the slightest symptom OF such n
development. This adds to the extra
ordinary nature or the case because
Of the age Of the bullet, which mad
accumulated verdigris and dirt. The
pistol had been loaded so long that
the police at the Eleventh precinct
had to use pliers and other instru-
ments to displace the pin that holds
the barrel in place.
When Mrs. Fox was shot she was
clinsing to her three-year-old child.
Mrs. Lillian Barrett. her daughter, at
tracted by the- reports Of the pistol,
hurried to her aid.
Take the baby, am dying" Mrs.
Fox murmured. She was lying about
six feet from her dying husband, who
had shot himself twice in the mouth.
Mrs. Barrett, thinking the child had
been wounded, carried her little sis
ter home. When she discovered the
child was uninjured she rushed back
to the lot, but the mother was not
there. Although weak from shock
and the loss OF blood. Mrs. Fox had
struggled to her feet and walked to
the street 100 yards distant. She sat
on the curb and a motorist was at
tracted by her means.
The husband and wife were hurried
to the Washington Asylum Hospitai
and later removed to the Emergency
Hospital. The husband died two days
later.
