New York, 1895
Tuesday evening Edward E. Dorsey, aged 20 years, residing in Brooklyn, attempted to board the 6.10 o'clock rapid transit train for Brooklyn as it started from the Jamaica depot. He fell between the cars and the wheels of the rear car passed over his left leg, mutilating it in a horrible manner. He was taken to the Jamaica Emergency hospital, where his leg was amputated below the knee by Drs. Philip M. Wood and P. F. Meynen.
—The Long Island Farmer, Jamaica, N.Y., Jan. 11, 1895, p. 12.
