Fiity.!hree Days Without Food.
Albany Argus.

The fasting of DR.. Tanner has re-
minded one of our correspondents
Of the case of Reuben Kelsey, re.
ported by the late DR.. James Nc
Naughtou, of this city, as follows:
KELSEY, on the I'd OF July, 1929,
declined to eat anything, assigning
a. reason that when it was the
will of the A lmig hi that he should
eat he would be furnished with an
appetite. For the first six weeks
he went regularly to the well In
the morning and washed his head
and face, and took q bowlful Of wa
ter into the house. With this he
occasionally rinsed his mouth and
drank some Of it. His parents
we're Of the opinion that he did not
drink more than pint of water in
twenty-fOur hours. Compulsory
means used to make him take
food were found unavailing. On
one occasion he went three days
without taking even water, but Oh
the fourth morning he was obsrrv-
ed to go to the well and to drink
copiously and greedily. On the
eleventh day of his fast he stated to
his friends that he had not felt so
well or SO strong In two years as at
that moment, aud consequently
denied the necessity of taking food
For the fret six weeks forty two
days. he walked cut every day, ana
sometimes spent the greater part
of the day in the woods.
He walked steadily and
firmly, and his friends
Unmarked that his step was unusu-
ally elastic. He shaved himself
until about a week before his
death, and was able to sit up In
bed to the last day. His mental
faculties did not seem to be i'm
paired as his general strength de-
clined, but, on the contrary, his
mind was calm aud collected to the
end. His voice toward the last
became feeble and low, but con-
tinued distinct.
Toward the close of his life he
did not go Into the field, nor dur
ing the last week even to the we'll,
but still be was able TO SIT up and
go about his room. During the
first three weeks of his abstinence
he fell away very rupidly, but af-
terward he did not seem to waste
so sepsibiy. His color was blue,
aud toward the last blackish. His
general appearance was so CHASTITY
that children were frightened at
the sight OF him. He died on the
oath Of August, 1920 having lived
hfty.three days without food. At
the time of his death Mr.. Kelsey
was twenty-seven years of age.
The case was perfectly authenti-
