1 Warrington. Oct s0.-There has beer
a change for the worse in the condition OF
I Mrs. Harrison Tonight she is weaker thar
| at any time since her Illness began. She Is
greatly exhausted and cannot turn her head
| upon her pillow Her cough, which had
ceased TO trouble her, is now said TO have
/ increased in volume. This, coming As il
; does in paroxysms, has a very depressing
and exhaustive effect on the patient.
( Mrs Harrison passed a comparatisel,
quiet day and did not suffer so much from
nervousness. She experienced more trouble
! than usual in taking nourishment, which
she has heretofore taken with regularity
Although she is in such weak state her
physician said tonight he did not apprehend
any immediate fatal result and thought /,
probable that by morning she might rally
and regain some of her lost strength
At 10 O'Clock Mrs. Harrison had rallied
sornew hat, Dr. Gardner said she was rest
ing little more quietly and feeling little
stronger Her condition is 50 precarious
that she may pass away within few hours
should another sinking spell occur This
may happen any time now from the natural
effects of the disease and in the absence Of
any new complications. At midnight Mrs.
Harrison was no better. She is still very
weak.
Today is the Ssth anniversary of the
marriage of President and Mrs. Harrison,
but the illness of the latter prevents any
recognition of the occasion of the day by
the family circle, and there il was marked
with an extreme sadness.
