Our baby, which Heaven presented us with ten months back,
was attacked, when four weeks old, with a disease of the
stomach and glands, by which our seven previous infants
had all been carried off, and this last child seemed destined
to follow its sisters and brothers before many days, for our
doctor, a very able practitioner, had, during three weeks, ex-
hausted all his skill, and was at a loss what
