Mrs. Isbell, v, in Agony and Unable to Move Un- til Family Returns Home From Work.
1sneclnl 10 inc Herald.l

Forestyille, April 22.-Mrs. Mary E. Isbell, aged 77, of 70 Kenny street, is resting comfortably today at St. Francis hospital in Hartford, after the narrowing experience yes- terday of having fallen down the cellar steps in her home, breaking her hip, and being forced to remain lying on the cellar floor all day until after o'clock last night when members of her family returning from their days work, discovered her absence and after a search found her in her miserable plight.
 Mrs. Isbell has been a very active woman. Yesterday morning when her family departed for work, she was alone in the house and after taking care of her daily chores about the rooms, she started to go into the cellar. While descending the stairs, her foot caught on one of the steps and she tripped, plung- ing headlong down the steep in- cline.
 She landed at the bottom with a deep thud and injured herself so severely that she was unable to move without eXcruciating pain. It was later found that she had suf- fered a broken hip. She tainted away at first from the unbearable agony in which she found herself and when she came to. the pain had increased to such proportions that she was unable to call for aid loud enough for anyone on the outside to hear her.
 All throughout the day, every minute of which seemed an eternity, she suffered her purgatory alone. Part of the time she was uncon- scious when her strength already sapped by the severe fall, gave out and part of the time she lay on the cellar floor unable 10 do anything but pray for aid or deliverance from her suffered.
 The minutes dragged by. and still no help came and Mrs '1sbell, her suffering made more intense be-

A mysterious burglary, which seems to point to the fact that friends of Gerald Chapman are stop- ping at nothing to prove his inno- cence in the event of a new trial, has just come to light with the knowledge that persons unknown broke into the house of Edward F. Lane on Winthrop street Sunday night and tempered with the records of the death of PatroIman James Skely, whow as shot in the Davidson and Loventhal department store, Oc- tober 12, and for whose murder Chapman has been convicted.
 Mir. Lane is pathologist at the New Britain General hospital and with Medical Examiner Waterman Lyon, performed the autopsy on the body .of the murdered policeman. He is probably the only person except Dr. Lyon who would be able to identify the fatal bullet.
 It is MT. Lanes custom in writing reports of autopsies he performs at the hospital to make carbon copies for personal reference purposes. The originals are filed among the rec
