READY TO co.
Or. Douglass Says Gen. Grant Was
Ready to Die.

MT MCGREGoR, n Y, July 24-While
sitting on the hotel yeranda this morning,
DR.. Douglass chatted at length with CORES
pondent of the Associated Press about Gen.
Grant, and of the long trial of suffering just
ended. "Do you remember" said DR.. Doug
lass, that during last week | said to you
there was a subsistence of swelling in the
everything tissues on the right side of the
neck, and | said on the day | spoke about it
| had been able to examine the Generals
throat much deeper, and with greater ease
than in a long time; do you remember that?'
His hearer recollected it clearly, and said so.
well, then, ," resumed DR.. Douglass, 81 am
going to tell you of an experience had with
Gen Grant on the afternoon of Thursday,
July 10th, at the time that | had observed
the indications about the throat l have
spoken of. During the afternoon of that
day the General wrote this, and DR.. Douglass
drew from his pocket several slips written
by Gen. Grant, and read what the sick man
had written, which was as follows:
~ felt sorry at the prospect of living thraugh
the summer and fall in the condition am in.
do not think / can, but | may except do not
gather strength. feel quite as well from day to
day as | have done heretofore, but am losing
strength. feel it more in my inability to move
around than in any oteer way, or rather IN lack
OF desire to try to move.'
''When had read that added DIR. Doug
lass, 81 turned to the General and tried to
cheer him by telling him of the apparently
improved condition of his throat and meek to
which in reply the General again wrote:
"After all that, however, the disease is still
there and must be fatal in the end. My life is
precious, Of course to my family, and would be to
me If could recover entirely, but there never
was one more willing to go than l.. | know most
people have first one and then another little thing
to fix up and never get quite through and this was
partially my case. l first wanted SO many days
work on my book so the authorship would be
mine. 1t was graciously granted me after being
apparently much lower then since and with ca
pacity to do more work than | ever did in the
same time. My work had been done so hastily
that much was left out and did it all over from
the crossing of the James River in 1864 to Appo-
mattoX in 1865. Since that have added as much
as 80 pages to the book should think. There is
nothing more to do therefore am not likely to be
more ready to go than at this moment

The State Board Of Health.

An Office admirably suited for the use of
the State Board of Health has been fitted up
in the State House at Augusta. DIR. Young,
the secretary of the board, has contributed
to the library $50 volumes from his own pri-
yate library, and has two or three hundred
more which he will place on the shelves.
Several works have been brought down from
the State Library, and others have been OBJ
tanned by purchase or exchange. The books
consist chiefly of sanitary works, written on
diseases and their cause and cure, and re-
ports of health boards of other States. The
Board is laboring diligently at the present
time. The questions of inquiry sent out to
physicians throughout the State are arrang-
ed to cover the subjects of topography, epi-
Neurological record, scarlet fever, diphtheria
typhoid fever, phthisis, and schools The
answers received have been numerous and
quite satisfactory, physicians generally ap-
proving the board, its objects and the man.
