OAKLAND. May 27. — Running after
her hat, which had been blown from
her head by the wind, 10 year old Edith
Toulten, the daughter of Luke T. Youl
ten. whose home is in Melrose, sped di
rectly in front of an automobile driven
by Miss Florence Henshaw, the young
est daughter of W. G. Henshaw, presi
dent of the Union savings bank, this
afternoon, and before the heavy car
could be stopped it had struck the
child, inflicting probably fatal Injuries.
The accident occurred In Hayward
boulevard, near High street, where the
girl iras at play with a -number of
schoolmates, none of whom apparently
saw the approaching automobile in
time to warn their companion of the.
impending danger. .-. . ; /,'- ; : . >•.«*.:
Miss Henshaw.' . accompanied by- the
tanker's chauffeur.- had -drtvenTout over
the boulevard and wae :returolngji to.
Oakland when 3 the. accident becurredj
According to the driver, the , machine"
was running slowly at the time of the
accident, but so sudden was the action
of the victim in running into the road
that Miss Henshaw had no opportunity
to stop the car In time to avoid the
danger. "When _ the girl ran into the
road the banker's daughter, • thinking
that the child was about to run across
the street, started to turn the machine
to pass behind her, when the girl, see-
Ing the automobile for the first time,
attempts to run back to the sidewalk.
Confused by the action of the child.
Miss Henshaw momentarily lost control
of the car, which plunged straight. at
the girl, striking her before she could
escape. The child was thrown to the
ground and the. machine, striking the
fide of the rrad. ran partly * over the
sidewalk before it was brought to" a
stop. The injured child was at once
placed in the car and hurried to the
home of Dr. George F. Wise, at SOB
Bond street, where it was found that
she had sustained a fracture of the
left leg below the knee. Internal in
juries and a fracture of the skull at
the base of the brain.
On discovering how serious was the
condition of the child Dr. Wise called
Dr. J. H. Callcn into consultation and
everything possible was done to re
lieve the suffering of the victim. The
parents of the girl were notified of the
accident and both went to the bedside
of the patient, who. remained un
conscious. Mrs. Youlten ..was . pros
trated.
Miss Henshaw, after . the accident,
broke down and was taken to the Hen
shaw home in Piedmont in a state of
collapse as a result of the shock of
the accident. As soon as she reached
the residence of Dr. Wise, Miss Hen«
Shaw notified her father. He hastened
to Dr. Wise's home, taking with him
Dr. S. H. Buteau, who assisted . Dr.
"\.ise in caring for the patient. Hen
shaw directed that noth^tg be spared
to save the life of the child. v He re
mained at the side of the sufferer until
late tonight.
