MAN’S ARM BROKEN.
A COUNTY EMPLOYEE. About eleven o’clock this morning, while helping to unload a Dennis lorry load of metal on the Old Te Arolia Road, Mr F. J. Williams, an Ohinemuri County Council employee, had the misfortune to break an arm. While the tip was being raised the check pawl evidently slipped out of place, with the result that the handle of the winding gear slipped back and struck Mr Williams on the forearm On examination by a doctor it was found that the top bone, between the elbow and the wrist, had been broken. Acting on the doctor’s instructions, Mr Williams will proceed to the Thames Hospital to have the injured limb X-rayed.
