Alice Mitchell injured
The hospital record described Mitchell's injury as a "laceration of wrist." Mitchell appeared in only two lists of the injured, those published by the Daily News and New York Evening Journal. Both reported different injuries, lacerations to the face and neck in the Daily News, and to the head in the New York Evening Journal. Others injured by flying glass suffered wounds to their legs (2), hands (1), and in the case of Hugh Young, to the head. After being seen by the physician, Mitchell went home, her injury evidently not serious enough for her to be sent to the hospital. None of the sources recorded Mitchell's race. Her residence in an area almost entirely populated by Black New Yorkers was strong evidence that she was a Black woman.
