Two Bones Broken.

Dr. 8. O. Johnson was called io see Mrs. Clarence Clemens, or near Surrey, Tuesday, and found her suffering greatly from the effects of a fall received the Sunday before; caused by slipping on ice near the well pnmp. Her right leg was injured just above the ankle, but as it was thought only a severe sprain had been suffered, a physician was not called until Tuesday. On examination, however, the doctor found both bones were broken, just above the ankle. The necessary surgical attention was given, and the patient’s suffering thereby greatly relieved. The injury will lay Mrs. Clemens up for six weeks or more.
