William Brown injured
The hospital record and lists of the injured in the New York Post and New York Evening Journal agreed that Brown suffered lacerations to his leg, although they disagreed on which leg. The hospital records said the injury was to the left leg, the newspapers to the right leg. Brown was admitted to the hospital, indicating a relatively severe injury. The others injured by flying glass during the disorder treated at Harlem Hospital were sent home. The hospital record did not include information about an individual's race; although newspapers sometimes included that information, in Brown's case they did not.
