FELL FROM A WINDOW
~
An Old Veteran By the Name of
Mahanka, From Sioux City is
Injured
~
An old solider, named Mahanka, who came in from Sioux City, to attend the encampment, fell out of the window in the Central House this morning about 6 o’clock and was taken to Mercy Hospital.
The result of his injuries cannot be fully ascertained as he has been unconscious since his removal to the hospital. Several of his comrades are watching at his bedside and it is to be hoped that the accident may not prove fatal.

Owing to his condition, it was impossible to learn with what regiment he served or any other information that would throw light on the cause of the accident.
