esanary to the advice of many pusses ; but the ethers were
put to bed at Mrs. Evsnes hole, and medical assistance
woe immediately sent for. Mr. Beam& soon attended, and
expressed an opinion that the sufferers wee la-
bouring under the effects of poison. An levee
ties immediately took place, when it was found that
in taking some oatmeal to ate with the broth prepared

the proper meal, some mixed with 'genie, need for killing
rats, had been boiled with the broth. Every earelZ
attention that could be suggested was at ones rendered to
the sufferers, whom agonise of mind and body were dis-
tressing to wieners. By the nemesia, attention of the
medical gentleman, the lives of four—Ellen Remileistaa
