Tryon came home from Chicago yesterday and reports that his son, F. F. Tryon, of Tulsa .Okla., >who suffered a fractured leg three months ago, and who went to the city last week to have it examined, is now a patient at the Mercy hospital under the care of Dr. John 'D. Murphy. His leg had been bound together by using a silver plate, which was screwed to the bone. The X-ray’showed that there was some infection and that the bone was not together. The splint was removed and the bone set without a splint. He will probably have to remain at the hospital for eight or ten weeks, but strong hope is held out that the recovery will be complete.
