left leg, which became 30 bad that ply sicians
came amputate the limb, though upon consulta-
ton concluded not TO DO SO, my whole body was
full of ScrofuIa they deemed il Advisable to cut
the sore, which was painful beyond description,
an there was . quart of matter run from this one
sore.
The physi:ians all gave me up TO die, and said
they could do no more for me. Both of my legs
were drawn up to my seat, and 1t was thought il

owed with il until had used sixteen bottles {;
and this morning Am going to plough corn, we'll

me round walking and working.
10 conclusion will add. when enduring
such great suffering from that dreadful disease,
Scrofu!a. prayed TO the Lord above to take out
of this world hut as VEe has restored TO me
the blessings of health, desire more than ever to
live, that may DO of service to my fellow mel )

Nathan Golf is 3 particular friend of Pres
iden. Hayes. He is United States District

Golf is ora,orical. He came all the way from
West Virgil last summer TO ornte at Arhng-
ton on Decoration Day. 1t has recently been
discovered that in selling the Barper's Ferry
property Goff, Notwithstanding he was an
officer of the Government, charged 'com-
missions" to the amount of three thousand
five hu,dred dollars, in addition to his per-
ssnsl expeuces. In locating the locks for

ton [W. Va. attorney named Mckenna ren>
dered the legal services necessary aud re-
ceived eighty dollars for his services, being
led to believe that was all the Government
could pay. An investigation at the Depart

ing interesting facts:
