The Edenton Gazette January 23, 1830
   It is with regret we state (says the Raleigh Star) that on Friday morning 
last, as GEN. BRIDGER J. MONTGOMERY, the Senator from Hertford County, was 
taking his departure for home, his horse took fright and ran away; and in 
attempting to escape from the gig by leaping out, the General's leg was struck 
by the wheel, and considerably fractured. he was immediately conducted back to 
his lodgings where he at present remains. He is now, however, in a fair way of 
recovering from his wounds, and it is hoped will, in a short time, be able to 
resume his journey.
