Haney Gets Broken Leg, Rib, Dislocated Ankle From Rampaging Cow
Alfred Haney suffered a broken leg, a cracked rib, and a dislocated ankle last
Wednesday morning when a cow went on a rampage after he and George Lervick had
inoculated the animal.
Haney was helping Lervick at the Lervick ranch, treat this sick cow, according
to Mrs. Haney. After the inoculation the cow took after Haney breaking his
left leg, the rib, and injuring the left ankle. His injuries may have been
more serious had not Lervick attracted the maddened cow's attention.
Alfred was brought into Jordan Wednesday morning to have the leg set and getpatched up. He's resting at the Haney home in Jordan.
