Herbert Holderman injured
Holderman, like Mitchell and Young, was treated by Dr. Payne at Harlem Hospital. He did not appear in the hospital records, only in the 32nd Police Precinct book of aided cases. Three newspaper lists of the injured also included Holderman, but the only information that they provided on his identity was his home address, 73 East 128th Street, an area of mixed black and white residences on the eastern boundary of Harlem. The police record did not specify where Holderman was cut. The lists disagreed on where he had been cut. The New York Post reported it as his hands, while the Daily News and New York Evening Journal reported it was his face. He was one of four of those injured with wounds to the hands (20%). After being attended by a physician, Holderman went home, indicating the wound was not serious enough to require him to be admitted to hospital.
