last night, has rallied. The abscess

during the night and much relief was
afforded him. His physicians state that
his vitality is wonderful.
Minister Lincoln stated this afternoon
that the doctors say his son surprised all
around him, by not only surviving the
night, but by having sufficient strength
this morning to permit tapping opera
tion to be performed, which greatly re.
lieved the heart and lungs from effuson.
Ii was pronounced that this operation,
because of the patients feeble condition,
would be fatal, but it was not. This
afternoon another operation was per-
formed and drain inserted in the
affected part, and matter is no flowing
freely from it. Though still in great
danger, the physicians and parents are
not without hope of his recovery.
