After that three others of the family became subjects of the

. He was suffering from relaxed sore throat, and general lan-
id guor of the constitution, whieh, to a certain 'extent, he is
ag stilt affected with, aid I have all along been of opinion, that
he his complaints have, to a considerable degree, arisen from his
