Arizona Silver Belt

James Devore was badly hurt on Monday afternoon, in consequence of George Strong's team running away. Devore and Richard Trevarthan had just come off shift and got into Strong's wagon, on the grade below the Old Dominion hoisting works, to ride home. Devore had only just jumped in and was standing in the bed of the wagon when the horses started to run. In order to save himself from a headlong plunge, he jumped and alighted on his feet with such force that he sustained a complete dislocation of the left ankle joint with a fracture of the outer bone. Trevarthen was thrown out of the wagon but escaped with a few slight bruises. George stayed with the team until the wagon turned bottom side up, with him underneath the bed. Strange to relate George wasn't even scratched. Devore was brought home and Dr. Largent, assisted by Dr. Pangburn, of San Carlos, set the limb and the patient is doing as well as could be expected. It will probably be several months before Mr. Devore is again able to walk.
