A REMARKABLE CASE.


editorial columns
Our readers may recall the cir
cumstance of young clerk, named
Arthur Richold, falling insensible
on the Weatlcy Lane in this town
some time ago, and being picked
up, rs he continued perfectly help
less, and taken in a cab by two
gentlemen to the Office OF f. W.
Fisher, Esq; the solicitor who en-
ployed him. On restoring him TO
consciousness it was ascertained
that he was afflicted with what
seemed to be an incurable disease.
When he was able to speak he
said he had been to his dinner and
and was on his way back to his
work, when suddenly his head was
in a whirl and he fell in the street
like q man who is knocked down.
On coming to his senses in the soil
citor's office he thought what this
might mean, and feared he was
going to have q fit of illness, which
we all know is very dreadful
thing for a poor man with a family
to care for.
With this in his mind he at once
sought the best medical advice,
telling the doctors how he had been
attacked. They questioned him,
and found that his present malady
was exhaustion of the nervous sys-
TEN resulting from general debility,
indigestion, and dyspepsia of u
chronic nature. This in turn had
been caused by confinement to his
desk and grief at the loss of dear
friends by death. The coming on
of this strange disease, as described
by Mr.. Richold, must be of inter
est both to sick and well. He had
noticed for several years previously,
in fact, that his eyes and face be-
gan to have a yellow look; there
was sticky and unpleasant slime
on the gums and teeth in the
morning; the tongue coated; and
the bowels so bound and costive
that it induced that most painful
and troublesome ailment-the piles
He says there was some pain in
the sides and back and n sense OF
fulness on the right side, as though
the liver we're charging, which
proved to be the terrible fact.
The secretions from the kidneys
would be scanty and high-coloured
with kind of gritty or sandy
deposit after standing.
These things had troubled Mr.
Richold long time, and after hi
fall in the street he clearly perceive
that the fit of giddiness was nothin
more than sign of the steadl
and deadly advance of the complaint
which began in digestion and dys
depsia. His story of how he wen

he became too i'll to keep his situa

was a sad calamity. He was appal

live. But God raised up friend
who helped to keep the wolf frol

side at Walton-on-the-Naze, br
neither the change, nor the ply

vague hope that some advantas
