FACTS Arr SUsBORN THINGS.
From TaT5oro S~oub5ern6r. Ja3Y II.

While visiting Tarboro, on July 8th, |
was requested to visit Miss Mary station,
seven miles from town, who for seven
weeks had been suffering ~excruciating
agony from some blood poison, supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at heI
request, | went to see her, and expected to
see great suffering, but was not prepared
for the scene that met me. | found the
patient broken out al ovsr with an erup-
ton which had Cccasioned such intense
itching L at during the paToxys1ns she was
perfectly uncontrollable and had scratched
and torn herself to pieces until her agony
was INDISPENSABLE During these par
oxysms she would have to be held, and
her screams could be heard q long distance
She would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole body was purple ane
raw, exuded a Y How water which satu-
rated the bed through several tn OK quits
that day she had possessed herself OF a
thick gutta -percha coarse comb, and before
she could be prevented, had raked herself
with it with such force as to breed out
some of the teeth, thus @dding to her agony
She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro and her neighborhood could
afford, but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
md no permanent benefit, as the par
oxvsms continued to return with lncreas-
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
of the patient l called the family together
and told them to bear witness that PROM
, IsED NOTHING. I could not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as | had
never even imagined such suffering, but Il
: could do no harm and might do good.

; and as soon as the paroxysm YVES over, ]
sponged her whole body with the Wash
While doing SO she would call cut, "Oh
that does feel so good I then gave hel
