Harry Ivory Found In an Unconscious

Condition

Harry Ivory, a well known flint glass worker, who worked all of last fire at the Hemingray glass works, was found laying alongside the Lake Erie & Western railroad track near Fort Recovery, Ohio, yesterday morning, in an unconscious condition, and late last evening had not recovered.

Ivory left Muncie Wednesday night at 8 o'clock on a freight train for Bowling Green, O., and the supposition is that he fell from the train. The news of the find was received yesterday morning in a telegram to Albert Evans of the Hemingray glass works. The injured man had a letter in his pocket that gave his identity and mentioned Mr. Evans name, and he was notified for the purpose of locating the man's relatives.

Mr. Evans at once telegraphed that a man would arrive there on the first train and for the people to give him the best attention until ha arrived; and last evening Daniel Cummings of the local flint glass workers' union want to Fort Re­covery, The telegram did not give the details of the injuries and they could not be ascertained further than that the man had not regained consciousness last night, and that he would likely not survive his injuries

Ivory has a brother residing in Anderson, and he was notified last evening and will arrive here this morning and go to Recovery. The injured man came to Muncie from Covington, Ky. and is a well known flint worker. He worked all of last fire in the Hemingray factory, and was here Wednesday looking after work, but found none and was returning to Bowling Green, where his wife and child have been living for some time.
