1t was reported yesterday that man named
S. S. Wernor had died suddenly at No. IS
Temperance street under very suspicious cir
cumstances. Dame rImOr had it that while
slightly indispOsed an Opiatc had been admin
istered to ease pain, from the effects of which
he was lulled into profound sleep, and while
in this state death resulted. The report was
investigated bya GLOBE reporter and found
to have had no foundation in fact The de-
ceased, who was attended by Dr. Hagan, was
taken sick the latter part of last week, being
at first seized with a pain in the head and
vomiting. All the symptoms indicated cerebro
spinal meningitis, and a complete case of
this dread malady soon developed. The symp-
tons first were excitability and rigidity of the
muscles, next the muscles were relaxed and
the patient, as usual, fell into profound
stupor, when death ensued. No opiates were
administered whatever.
Mr.. Patterson Meant What He Said.
The following tribute to veil known and
meritoriOus preparation will be read with
pleasure by all who are suffering from pull
monary complaints themselves, or have friends
so afflicted:
hereby certify that my boy, ten years of
age, was taken sick with typhoid fever, follow
ed by congestion Of the lungs. DR.. Dyer, an
eminent physician, of this place, stated that he
thought the boy would run down with quick
consumption. 4 Mr. Patterson told me that
Goes Cough Balsam was curing similar cases,
and advised me to purchase it. When carried
it home, my wife Laughed at me; but ! knew
that Mr.. Patterson meant just what he said,
and determined to try it. Two bottles ef-
fectually cured him, so that now he is as tough
and healthy as anybody.
