ATLANTA, GA, January 70, 1885.
Emerging from a severe and long spell of ty-
phoid fever, l discovered that the fever had set
tied in my right leg, " hicl caused it to swell to
an enormous size, remaining so quite three
years, resisting all treatment. A small ulcer

ankle which refused to heal oany and all ex-

blood poison remedies.
The ulcer C ntinued to enlarge, frequently dis.
charging, perhaps, as much as cupful of pus or
matter per day. The size ofihe ulcer was about
Two inches in diamter, extending to a depth
near the bone. At one time it appeared that
the flesh in all contiguous parts, would surely
become a running sore, as its peculiarly fabby,
spotted and unhealthy condition clearly indica-
ted, and it was intimated that might lose nv
leg. My condition becoming so critical, and the
ulcer enlarging 50 rapidly, we sent for DR.. J.P
Dromgoole, who made a thorough examination
and said that the flesh on my leg for six inches
around the sore would Soon slough off If not
remedied; that must have my leg bandaged

A Mother and Child Burned.

LITTLE ROCK, April I4.-ParLiculars
have reached here from Paragould,
Green county, Ark, of the burning to
death of a lady named Mrs. Thorp and
a little daughter living about six miles
from the above place. The woman
and daughter were burning stalks in
a field when the clothes Of the little
girl caught fire and enveloped her in
the flames. Her screams attracted her
mothers attention, who ran to her
child's relief, but the grass was also on
fire and before Mrs. Thorp reached the
child her own clothing caught and she
was soon wrapped in flames, and both
were burned to a crisp.
