      "Aged Woman was Injured in at Tumble", The Anderson
      Herald, Anderson, Indiana, 16 February 1911, p. 1.

      Aged Woman was Injured in a Tumble
      Lapel, Ind., Feb 15---Mrs. Sarah Hersberger, aged 81, who lives with her son Thomas, on her farm two miles southeast of Lapel, had her face badly bruised two nights ago. Mrs. Hersberger has been sick for some time, but is now able to be about the house most of the time. On the evening referred to, she was sitting in her chair and began to feel dizzy. As it was 8 o'clock, she concluded that it was nearly her bedtime and she would go to bed. As she started to rise, she fainted and fell forward, her face striking the floor. A doctor was called.
