Former Times Editor Lay 4 Days After Breaking Hip



"Mrs. Mary G. Eubank, 83, Madison, former Madison Times editor and widow
of the late Clyde Eubank, lay five days on the floor of her home after
she tripped over a chair, fell and broke a hip around 9 a.m. Friday,
October 16. She was discovered Wednesday of last week by her daughter,
Mrs. L.H. Markland, St. Louis, who came to Madison to get her mother and
take her to the Markland summer home at Armstrong. Entering the house
she found her mother on the floor and quoted her as saying "I'm so glad
you're here. Get me a drink of water, call an ambulance and get me out
of here."

Aside from being dehydrated, physicians said she appeared to otherwise
be alright. She underwent surgery on the hip, at the hospital last
Thursday and was reported Wednesday of this week as in a satisfactory
condition. She was also reported as never having lost consciousness
during her five day and night ordeal. Neighbors who noticed an
accumulation of mail and saw no lights or activity at the Eubank home
thought she had gone for a visit with her son, Ben, of Hartford, Conn.,
who had left about an hour before she fell."
