Accident to the Hon T. Fergus.
« [Per Press Association.] WELLINGTON, August 6. The Hon T. Fergus mat with an awkward accident on Saturday afternoon. He was in the bathroom at Bellamy's, when, happening to throw up his right band, he sharply struck a gas globe. The glass inflicted a deep cut on the back of his hand, near the wrist. Dr Pollen was in the building at the time, and applied a tourniquet, which stopped the bleeding. Except that he lost a good deal of blood, and will be unable to use the hand for some time, Mr Fergus did not sustain any serious injury.
