Miss. Carrie Corson, living at Au-
gusta, Maine, bright, pretty young
lady of sixteen, is suffering from an
affection eff the brain, which has
manifested itself in most peculiar
and unusual manner. About seven
weeks ago Miss Corson, who work
ed in the mill, complained of a pain
in her head. 1t continued to in
crease intensity until she was oblig-
ed to suspend work. AS the disease
progressed her voice was affected.
She could net seem 70 find words to
express her thoughts and her voca-
bulary became very limited. In a
short time "No" was the only word
she could utter, and all questions
asked her were answered "No. "
Finally she could not articulate 8
word distinctly, and at the present
time babbles like an infant. She
has also become almost entirely de-
mented. When awake her limbs
are kept in constant motion. One
arm is partially paralyzed. Shs
cannot survive many days at the
best. The report gained credence
that the girl was suffering from
hydrophObia, but there is no ground
for it.
