ming about forty days. Mrs. Johnson
watched over her son, night and day
with all the anxiety and constancy of
which a mother alone is capable. just
about the time the son was considered
out of danger the mother, on Nov. IS,
came down with the fever The dangh-
tiers, Mary and Addie, felt it their
duty to care for their mother and in
three weeks, Dec. s, both fell sick
with the same dread disease. A few
days later, Willie, the youngest son,
began to show signs Of fever, and on
Jan. LIST, Hannah Robbins, sister of
Mrs. Johnson, who had been a faith
full helper and nurse in the family,
also fell sick and went to her home in
Craftsbury, living only about three
weeks. Mary died Jan. II, Addie Jan.
16, and the mother Jan. 10. Willie is
quite rapidly improving and Matte
is comparatively well. Mr.. Johnson
has not had the fever, as has. been
but is worn out and distress
ed by his labors and his sorrows His
mother, Mrs. Nathaniel Johnson, is in
a critical condition from heart dis
ease and dropsy, and will, probably,
is very sad one, and the remaining
members of the family have the SYM
