named journals call every letter from persons have
| restored to sight in the above places, puts.

the sight ef one aye from KS alter his birth,
which his mother stated to h,n occasloned by the
measles or small pox; hut ne could not only see
the light of the sun, for the first time that he recoects
but the stars also, and was beginning to distinguish
many objects and did before left that city, give ma
