"The Kansas City Journal" (Missouri) Friday, December 25, 1903 KNOCKED BETWEEN CARS. William FOUST, a negro laborer who lives at 1306 Baltimore avenue, was knocked off a cable car last evening as it was going down the Ninth street incline. He was riding down on the steps, and while he noticed another coming up, he thought he could hug the post to which he was holding, close enough to keep from being struck. He was knocked between the cars and narrowly missed being killed. After he had been carried down the incline, the police ambulance was called. His left knee was badly sprained and his right leg injured. He also received several bad scalp wounds. He was sent to the city hospital. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ======================================================
