THE WILLIAMsTON WONDER.
"A Deaf and Dumb Man Suddenly Gains
the Power OF Hearing and Speaking.
w1LL1Aasrox, S. C.. july 7tb. 1879.


WILLIAMSON, S. c., July 7th, 1879.
Mr.. EDITOR: Our community has Just
been astounded by the sudden bcstowment
upon 23-ycar-old dcaf-mute of the power
to hear and to speak. Marcus johnson, as
he calls himself was born a slave in the
family of Col. Il. e. Ware, of Greenville
county, miles east of this place. Up to
the nge of Is, he remained with the family,
valuable servant, frequently driving u
team to Williamson, their nearest railroad
station. lie was we'll known to our citi-
zens rs deafmute. He has brother and
an uncle similarly afflicted
Eight years ago he disappeared, no one
knowing whittier. His mother heard moth
ing from him until, on last Monday, June
80, he reached home on foot, still deaf and
dumb. Thursday afternoon, July 3, he
was seized with violent pain in the head,
accompanied by dreadful noises, and fol-
lowed by chlls, paroxysms, and uncon-
sciousness. After an hour or so, he recov-
cred his consciousness, and audibly asked
for drink of water
Since then he has been talking as occasion
-eQGi d n-orouncirg quite distinctly
almost any word he wishes TO use, anu ii.;-
proving perceptibly in the clearness of his
articulation, and the ease of his uttcrarce
He still realizes some fatigue of his vocal
| organs after speaking for some time.
On Saturday morning, 1 convcrsed with
him for more than an hour, and learned
from him something of his history during
his long absence. AS he told me, he took
passage on the train here, and was taken to
Columbia. He there supported himself by
chopping wood until he met young Mr..
Coleman, of Ridgeway, who had lost his
hearing by meningitis. Mr.. Coleman took
him to Augusta, whence he was sent by The
mayor to Atlanta. Gov. Brown sent him
on to Knoxville, Tenn, where lie has spent
the remaining time as pupil in the Ten
nessee Institution for the Deaf and Dumb.
He has been well taught, evidently; and he
says that the surgeon operated on his head
for deafness. l presume from his attempt
to describe it that he was trcpanned. And.
on leaving there June 81, the surgeon told
him that he ;:,ight hope soon to receive his
| hearing.
/ have written to the surgeon for precise
information and, if l receive it, will give
| it to you and your readers.
am yours,
S. LANDER
