He wants to see a city for the first time and contrast it with his native farm village, the only community he ever saw. But Gore doesn't really expect to see any of these things. He's not as optimistic as his physician. Dr. Samuel Harris of Boston. If sight comes, it will be welcome. If it doesn't well, Gore is so used to darkness that hi doesn't miss tho glowing world around him. Gore enjoyed natural eyesight un til -he was eight. Then a stick thrown at a cow by one of his farm lad friends, struck him in the left eye and deprived him of its use. Three years later a shaft from a crossbow struck him in the right eye. He had to have the eye removed. For a time Gore was able to distinguish the outlines of large objects. Then that power left him and he was able only to tell night from day. This last remnant left him before he was 21. Gore has served three terms In the U. S. senate. Now Gore is practicing law here, specializing in tax and land matters. He comes to his office punctually every nvirning. His secretary reads aloud to him from law books. He dictation. prepares his cases by

After shooting the colonel the man was set upon by a mob, who would undoubtedly have killed him had it not been for the timely intervention of the man he had tried to assassinate.
