THIS TELEGRAM COSTS $15,163

Costly indeed was the telegram being delivered last August by the messenger boy whose bicycle injured Mrs. Margaret A. Dodd on a downtown corner. A jury in Judge E. P. McDaniel's court yesterday awarded her $15,163.94 in her suit against the Postal Telegraph and Cable Company.

Lying on a hospital cot during court sessions for tendays, Mrs. Dodd's testimony disclosed this was the fifth serious accident that had befallen her. 

Twenty-three years age she was run over by an automobile. In 1921, she was hurt getting off a street car. In 1925 she almost died because of an overdose of sleeping powders. And one year later a pistol she was examining exploded and missed her heart inches, the bullet penetrating a shoulder.

Her attorneys in the present action were Allen Washburn and C. F. Sutton.
