New York, 1895
While Alfred D. Lewis was driving on Wednesday at Hempstead, his spirited horse took fright at a chair on a lawn. The animal bolted and the carriage struck a gate post and was upset.
The occupants, Mr. Lewis, his mother, and his sister, were thrown to the ground. Mrs. Lewis's collar bone was broken. Miss Lewis received a compound fracture of the right arm and several bad bruises. Mr. Lewis's left leg was broken above the ankle.
