tanned at the inquest that he had been sick
Q long time, with occasional conyuisions. IT.

She found him In bed and complaining OF
feeling quite sick. She offered to send for q
physician, bnt he said he would wait untis
the morning, and il he was no better thes:
he would do so. Thinking It necessary,
however, she sent for Or. Harrison, but .ths'
