The hardships, however, told seriously on him, for when the grip attacked him four years ago nearly killed him. Who can look on the’ infirmities of a veteran without a feeling of the deepest sympathy ? His townspeople saw him confined to bis house so prostrated with great nervousness that he could not hold a knife and fork at the table, scarcely able to walk, too, and as he attempted it, he often stumbled and fell.
