The direct cause of his affliction is due 1i ’ an injury received from a fall from a wagon, falling backwards to the groundjin such a position as to injure the spine and also to cause a slight concussion of fie brain. Tas accident was a few weeks prior to the date of his illness, which was January, 1904, from which time he never rallied, but declined rapidly, both physically and mentally. Word was received from the superintendent of the hospital Monday morning, stating that there was only a very slight change for the better in his physical condition, but mentally no better. He also stated that'when he was received there he was in a very weak, phy sical condition and his strength almost exhausted. There seems to l>e no hope extended for his recovery.
