Gertrude Gibson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Gibson, of this city, was knocked down Saturday afternoon on North Union Street by an automobile, and, while not seriously injured, was painfully bruised and received what is thought to have been a broken ankle.
According to spectators, Gertrude had been riding and stepped out of one car directly in front of another. In the usual Saturday afternoon congestion of Forth Union, it was impossible for the car to swerve sufficiently to miss hitting her although it was traveling at a very slow rate when it did hit her.
An X-ray picture is to be made of the ankle today to determine whether or not it is broken.
