Adam Gremmen, Jr., of 1713 South Fourth street, is suffering from blood poisoning. He scratched the back of his hand and wiped the blood with a piece of waste. A few days later his hand and arm were swollen twice their natural size and an operation had to be performed. His condition is serious. Nicholas Blank, of 1711 Ferry avenue, is also suffering from the same disease, caused by not caring for a wound received while operating a grinding machine.

Adam Gremmen Jr., 1713 S. 4th Street, was taken to Cooper Hospital suffering from blood poisoning. Nicholas Blank, 1711 Ferry avenue, was taken to West Jersey Hospital.
