LIVONIA, June 7. — Tuesday night at about 7:30, Thomas NAGLE was coming down the hill on Big Tree street. He was riding a little too fast to be safe. His wheel struck a loose stone, the chain came off and he was thrown on his head. He was taken up unconscious and remained so most of the night. Several times he regained consciousness for a few minutes at a time. His nose and upper part of his face are quite badly bruised. It is impossible yet to tell how badly the hurt will prove.
