S.D. Langston Expected to Recover from Fractured Skull, Aug. 17, 1924

Doctor Predicts That Langston Will Recover

Unless predictions made by the attending physician prove incorrect, Stephen Daniels Langston, white man of the Eureka section who suffered a fractured skull when struck in the head with a ? round in the hands of Jack Whitley, also white, a few days ago, will recover.

It was at first thought that Langston’s condition was of such a critical nature that he stood less than an even chance of recovery. However, he has been holding his own and a report from the home yesterday was to the effect that he would very likely recover.

Whitley is at liberty on bail in the sum of $1,000.
