Sewell was brought to his home in this place, prostrated by an accident that occurred last Friday while he was working in lower Georgia, about 14 miles from Oglethorpe [Macon Co.]. The result was a complete fracture of the bone of his leg, between the hip and knee. Against the advice of his physician, his will power enabled him to make the trying journey home where he expects to be confined for six or eight weeks. The sympathies of all are with him in this trying interruption to his active and energetic career. Mr. Henry Sewell who had gone to his father as soon as news of the accident reached here, attended him on his trip. Mrs. Sewell who had gone down Sunday afternoon, also accompanied him home.
