ment of a Physician.
An unusual article from the Rochester IN.
" Democrat and Chronicle was republished
in this paper, and was a subject of much con-
versation, both in professional circles and on
the street. Apparently il caused even more
commotion in Rochester, as the following
from the same paper shows:
DR.. j. b. Henlon, who is well known not only In
Rochester but in nearly every part OF America,
sent an extended article to this paper a few DAYS
since, which was duly publishsd, detailing his re-
markabe experience and rescue from what seemed
to be erttin death. IL would be impossible to
enume ate the personal inquiries which have been
made at our once as To- the validity of the article
but they have been so numerous that further in
yestlgation OF the subject was deemed an editorial
necessity.
Win this end In view representative OF this pa
per called on DR.. Henion at his residence on st.
Paul street, when the following interview occurred:

"This. then is what you meant when you said
that more than one-half Of the deaths which occur
