ROYAL HELPERS
ACCIDENTS IN THE HIGHLANDS. THE KING TO THE RESCUE. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn.) » LONDON, Sept. 3. His Majesty the King, who is shooting in Scotland, personally assisted the victims, of two accidents. In the first case a man named Grant, a veteran Balmoral keeper, endeavoured to quieten an excited dog, which bit him in the face. The King helped to draw the dog off, and then ran and telephoned for a doctor and summoned the Queen, who' sent the injured man home in her car. Later Urquhart, a gillie, was cycling toward the Royal party, when he was thrown from his machine and injured. The King, who was nearest, helped to lift up the injured man and to carry him to his car, and personally accompanied him to his home.
