of the Presidents surviving his injuries, but
there Is an
UNMIsTAKABLE AIR OF HoPEFULNEss
On the faces of attending physicians, which
was wanting up to late hour last night.
Despite his extremely critical condition the
country can reasonablyc'' herish some hope the
President may yet recover. The lapse of
time since the bullet did its work without
large loss of blood, renders it probable no
large artries or veins have been severed. Had
this occurred, there would doubtless have
been fatal hemorrhage before this time.
To the hopeful side of the case, may also be
added the important point that the circulable
condition of the stomach has been somewhat
overcome and healthy reaction may
now be expected. To the ordinary chances
OF lifesnnder such circumstances should also
be added the Presidents naturally strong
constitution, his regular habits, his great
fortitude, his
HOPEFUL RELIANCE ON PROVIDENCE,
and his determination to recover if possible.
These are all important factors In his favor,
and while they by no means affect the fact
that his condition is one which entails the
greatest apprehensions, they serve to remove
the conviction which obtained so generally
last night that his case is absolutely hopeless.
