March 23rd, 1910
Trenton, New Jersey
Woodrow Wilson stepped out into the sunlight. He blinked as his eyes adjusted to the light out front of the statehouse. As he stepped out onto the street, a man shouted at him, directing his attention to the right.
"Oh hello John!"
Wilson was so enthralled in his conversation with the man that he didn't hear the pounding of the horse's hooves.
He didn't hear the shouting of the carriage driver.
The last thing his brain processed before he was ground into the pavement by the momentum of the carriage was the sight of John dashing towards him in a vain attempt to push him out of the way.
