"Aunt Polly" Hickman, as she is familiarly known, had her  right hip broken or dislocated several years ago and since that  time has been confined to an invalid's chair.
 
On Tuesday she stood up to arrange her clothing, and happening  to bear all her weight on the same leg it gave way and in falling  both bones were broken just above the ankle.
 
She is 89 years old and her advanced age makes her condition  serious. - typed by  kbz
