Later About Shaw’s Injuries.

Mrs. Charles Shaw received a card from her husband at Kokomo, on, Thursday morning, giving fuller particulars of the injury to Charley’s father, James L. Shaw, as above related. The first report was not' quite accurate- Instead of both feet being taken off, the left leg is taken off above the knee. The injuries to the right leg aie confined to the toes, which were badly mangled. It was feared at first that the shook would cause Mr. Shaw’s death, but his condition seemed much more hopeful when Charley wrote, although it was still too early to be entirely sure that he would survive the injury.
