Grant Wounded In Fall At Home
General Grant slipped while alighting from a coupe at his residence on Monday evening and fell on his left side injuring the leg about four inches below the hip joint. Surgeons report no broken bones, suspect a bruise of the sciatic nerve, and he remains in bed in one position. Health is good aside from the painful limb, and physicians expect several weeks before he can leave the house.
