Strangely Afflicted.
+ From the Indianapolis Journal ]


Fort WAYNE, Nov. 2.-On July IS
last Henry Breen Of this city, then
brakeman of the Wabash Railroad,
while coupling cars at Cecil, Ohio, was
caught between the steps of the caboose
and saw log which extended over
fiat car, and his skull was fractured.
For weeks be lowered between life and
death, but his strong constitution saved
him, ard he was finally able 70 be out,
though his skull was cracked in several
places. It was also found that the
cords Of the left eye We're paTaiyZed.
This ailliction grew worse, snd two
weeks ago Breen went to Springfield,
H., before the convention Of illinois
surgeons, which was in annual session
in that city. They pronounced his
case "aneuris,n CT the eye" and the
only case on record.
One fracture Of the skull just above
the eye grew wider, and .4ere was dan
ger of & blood vessel bursting, which
would cause instant death. By hold-
ing the car to the fracture of his Skull
one could distinctly hear the pulsation
! of the brain. Breen WAS placed
under the influence Of opiates and
an iron collar placed around his
neck, to which is attached thumb
screw which was pressed over the
orbit to stop tie rush of blood.
The physicians pronounced his case
hopeless. Breen still walks the streets,
however, and, with his fine physique,
looks the picture of health. He has
| had innumerable offers to place HIM
self before medical colleges for eNplana-
ton and study Of his remarkable case.
It is believed that Breen is the only
man alive who wears L collar made III
a blacksmith shop.
