Browne EL Injury

Waupaca Republican

December 9, 1881

Serious Injury

Last Wednesday morning Hon. E.L. Browne returned from Milwaukee where he had been on business for a couple of days. When he had got fairly seated in his buggy, which was waiting for him at the depot, his horse became frightened and turned quickly, upsetting the buggy and throwing Mr. Browne out striking on his head on the frozen ground, laying the scalp open and causing a very severe injury. Dr. Taylor, who was called to dress the wound, says that it is a very serious matter and it is hard to tell just how it may result. We sincerely hope it may not be so bad as it appears and that he will speedily recover from the effects of the accident.
