EDMUND G. STEADMAN tells the
Tribune that it was overwork that
killed Bayard Taylor, and says he did
the work, of two able>bodied men
trouble with him." says .Stedman,
"was his inability, owing to his ex-
cessive labors, to take sufficient social
recreation. His enemies, very few in
number, have falsely attempted to
make a point against him with ex-
cessive beer-drinking. It was his want
of recreation and rest that killed him.
He WAS forced to take some stimulus
to support himself under exhausting
labor, but he was not an excessive
'beerdrinker as has been charged, though
what he did take many have helped to
develop his disease"
