CRANE CABLE SLIPS
MAN WOUNDED BY HOOK When the hook on the end of a crane cable slipped from the iron plate it was lifting in the hold of the Valaeia, at Queen’s Wharf yesterday afternoon, H. Knigge, a married man aged 49, living in Beach Road, Point Chevalier, was wounded in the face. The hook swung back from the plate and struck Knigge in the face, breaking his nose and cutting a deep gash in his forehead. Pie was taken to hospital by the St. John Ambulance and, after treatment, went home.
