Rev. Baech, of Delphi, is Now in Critical Condition.

Mrs. B. F. Fendig returned from Delphi Friday, where she has been assisting her mother in the care of Rev. Baech. He is very low now and death is expected at any moment. He has suffered with, cancer of the stomach for many months and has undergone several operations, none of which have proven very beneficial. He has not taken nourishment of any sort for two weeks and is so weak that he is utterly helpless, even to move an arm or musciSk " A remarkable condition in this case is his lack of suffering. Ordinarily, cancer of the stomach is accompanied by much physical suffering, and is one of the most painful diseases known. Doctors are unable to account for it but say he does not suffer at all.
