The Extraordinary Experience OF a Prom
tnent RichmOnder.

Richmond Va State.
n. n. Arnold, OF the VALLEY Nirginian, >
Staunton, Va, writes the following remark
able letter, the truth OF which is attested by
many prominent StauntOn citizens.
Mr.. Crawford, however, is 80 well known
IN Richmond that no affidayits are necessary
IN his case. His remarkable experience Is
well worth perusal TO the end:

the morning Of the early part Of February,
1879, as passed tho village tavern the hired
boy informed me that there was gentleman
at the house dying and that he had sent for
me several times
He said that his physician had told him nc
had Bright's Disease. shortly after midnight
his convulsions were so severe and in such
rapid succession the nurse had expected him
70 die every hour, and he was at this moment
sinking rapidly.
How any being could suffer as he did apd
live Is and always viii be a mystery 20 me-
His groans could be heard at a great distance
Thanks 20 a kind Providence change came
and after few days he was able 10 be re
moved 20 his home at Summerdean. Fol
many months he was looked upon as no better
than dead man.
Imagine my surprise then when few
months ago / met him I'm StauntOn looking
IN better health than ever. 1 imagined h'

one in the lot who presents more the appear
ance Of perfectly healthy man than he III,
gives me the following additional part

after reaching my home took my bel
and the outlook was that when / left it II
would DO for a march 20 tho tomb.
"ConVulsion followed CONFUSION: in my
agony my cenched hands drove the nails o
my fingers into the flesh of my palms.
Every physician OF note i'm the neighbOr
hood and several from Stanton were sum
moned, but for Bright's disease they could
give no relief, much less n cure.
Two eminent physicians were called from
Philadelphia; after examining me one asked
i wonder why he sent for u.s. Why, he's {

Thus 1 lay suffering. All was gloom. Al
last some kind angel suggested that / use

bottle had not been exhausted before som,
