The stump of the injured leg was roughly bandaged with a tyre tube of a bicycle which lay near. The injured man proved to be a leather worker, Heinrich Kuehr, who subse- 'quently related that when 'crossing the railway he was thrown from his bicycle and at once lost conscious- ness, which he did not recover till the following morning.
Later, however, it was discovered that he had insured himself against accidents with two separate com- An- panies for a total. of £3,150, other circumstance which was held to be suspicious was the disappear- ance of the stranger who had given the first alarm. He vanished while the injured man was removed to hospital, and all efforts to trace him have been in vain."
