A little ramble through 19th century astronomy - accident to Lord Rosse in 1864

We regret to hear that a serious accident happened to Lord Rosse on the 19th March 1864, while superintending the felling of some trees at Parsontown, one of which in falling, struck him and rendered him insensible for a quarter on an hour. It is reported that he is progressing favourably.
