SKIN GRAFTING NECESSARY.
Delicate Operation Required to Save
Mrs. McReynold's Life.
The life of Mrs. Anna McReynols, 517 West Fifteenth street, whose scalp was torn off Friday, may be saved by the grafting on of new skin, says Dr. A. C. Boswell. Mrs. McReynolds is very weak from loss of blood and the shock of her injury and to atempt to remove skin from any part of her body and graft it on her head would probably prove immediately fatal. Her only chance to recover lies in gifts of skin by friends. So far as could be learned last night no one had offered any epidermis.
Mrs. McReynolds was employed as forewoman at an overall factory As she was stooping over a machine Friday afternoon, her hair caught in the shafting and the skin from her entire head, down to her eyebrows, was torn off.
