Show PAINFUL ACCIDENT. On Wednesday afternoon last a young lady by the name of Matilda Hansen, residing in the Fourth Ward, was painfully injured by falling on the ice. She had been sliding on a smooth sheet of the "slippery," when in a way well known to all who have had the unenviable experience, she found her body rapidly leaving the perpendicular; and when it reached the horizontal a terrible concussion resulted. She was conveyed home, and Doctor Ormsby was sent for. He found that a slight fracture of the clavicle had ensued and that one of her shoulders was severely bruised. The young lady is progressing favorably.r |
