The boy is about 12 years old. He was riding horseback and in turning a corner near F. T. Walker’s residence, the horse stumbled, throwing the boy to the ground and breaking his skull. Dr. Evans was called, but no hope is entertained for his recovery. ______ The Columbus Telegram, January 1, 1904, p. 1, col. 2 Patsy, thirteen-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Lyons, was thrown from a horse he was riding Tuesday noon, and died at 1:45 yesterday morning from the effects of injuries sustained in the fall. The accient occurred on 11th street, near the residence of P. L. Luchsinger, and a short distance from the Lyons home further down the street. No one saw the accident, but it is thought the boy was riding faster than judicious and his horse stumbled at the street crossing. He was picked in the middle of the street, blood streaming from his nose and mouth. One side of the skull was depressed, indicting a fracture. Owing to the low vitality of the boy, the attending surgeons were unable to perform the operation which might have saved his life. The injured boy never recovered consciousness until a few minutes before his death, and then only to speak a few words. Plans for the funeral have not been definitely made. It will probably be held from the Catholic church Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock. ____ The Columbus Journal, January 6, 1904, p. 2, col. 2 Patsy Lyons died last Thursday morning from injuries received Tuesday afternoon.
