sicians was called to the country to
see o patient, the early part of this |
week. some six or eight miles from |
town. The party sick was found TO |
be an. old lady, 75 or so years. of age.
The case had been treated for sever
almonths by local doctor as cry
sipelas. When first taken down in
the early part of the, summer, the
patient was violently affected with
inilamatory sore. eyes. Negligence
upon the part of those attending her,
permitted the screw fly to deposit
its egg i'm the corner of the left eye
from which this most horrible and
revolving case occurred. Upon an
examination, by 1onr informant, the
eye was found to be entirely eaten
out by worms, and bya suflocating
application to the wound, more than
a quart measure full of them were
extracted. The physician thinks
that in little while longer the de-

i A RovING WoMAN.-A few days
since, our readers Will remember, we
referred to the fact that the wife of
Hesse, the butcher, charged with beat
ing child almost TO death few
, weeks ago, had taken to the brush
with her two children, ana had been
seen near the Leon creek, west of the
city, by Mexican. Yesterday,
while riding about through the brush
about four miles distant, and near
the Castroville road, MIR. John Zoller
also came upon this woman. She
appeared wild and careworn, and the
two little ones with her looked hag-
! gard and hungry. The camp OF the
trio was under the limbs OF a bush,
where there was evidence to lead to
the belief that they had been at the
place for several days. MIR. Zoller
found the woman communicative,
and she told him that her husband
had induced her TO take TO the brush
on account OF the charges maze
against him for beating his child.
This Mr.; Zoiier toid our reporter.
Il one OF the children remarked that
they had had nothing TO eat ior Two
days. After nearing their sad tales,
Mr. Lolier turned MS morse 10 ihe
city, reported Inc iacis 10 Judge
