D1srBE ss1NG ILLNESS OF Hon, J. B. BALDWIN
Sunday morning last at Trinity Church, while
the choir was singing the TIE Deum anthem,
number of gentlemen were seen to crowd around
the pew of Hon. J. B, Baldwin, and in moment
or two Dr. Hunter Mcclure of Richmond ana
Dr. Donaghe of Staun ton, who were sitting near
were summoned to his aid, he having been taken
ill with the loss of use of one side of his person.
He was supported out into the yard, and laid
down until some of the gentlemen present could
procure a litter and convey him home. The
deepest feeling was shown among the congrega-
ton when it became circulated that Col. b. had
been paralyzed, the people talking of it as pub
lie calamity. On Wednesday night Col. B. was
SO i'll that few hopes were entertained of his re-
covery, but yesterday morning he had rallied
and there are now strong expectations of his res.
toration His attack, which was not paralysis, but
nervous prostration caused from overwork.-
H e had been in New York on an important case,
went straight to Bath county where he spoke 3
houls in law case, that night started for Rich
.mond where he arrived next evening, spent that
evening and night and next day in consultation
with he State Conservative Committee and then
returned home. Prolonged and exciting mental
work with loss of sleep, brought on his attack.
Drs. Fauntleroy and Donaghe are in attendance
on him and at late hour last night there was
every hope of his recovery.
