manifold, and her emaciated form be-

which she has passed.
Her husband Is not a man addicted to

against him are common thing. Dr.

and clothing Repeatedly has Welch
ehrown away the medicine prescribed by

bury his wife this fall.
Last winter he kept her in n shanty too

against the prisoner.
He had just commenced his sentence OF
