John Frye Knocked Down

By frightened horse, Saturday night 

injured in the head

Horse frightened by electric car - injured man will be all right in Six weeks

John Frye, the well known pop-corn vender, was knocked down and severely injured by a horse, at the corner of Main and Huron streets, Saturday evening. 

It appears that John Frye, a farmer living east of town, had driven up on Huron street when his horse became frightened at a street car and shied, striking the pop-corn man and knocked him down. The horse continued to plunge about and in his struggles one of his feet struck the stricken man in the head, breaking the outer bone of the skull but did not penetrate the inner skull. The injury is a very painful one but not necessarily fatal.

Frye was picked up and Dr. Wm. Blair called, who dressed the wound. The doctor now reports that Frye is doing well, but that it will be about six weeks before he is out again.
