H., rs Il section hand, on the section
extending cast from Tccumsch, the
county seat of johnson County, Ne
braska. On the I'd day OF July he
met with an accident that nearly cost |
him his life. lie aud five other men were |
working hand ear in front OF which |
was push ear Mr. Allyn was stand |
ing ON the front part Of the car, with !
hi, back towards the direction in
which the car was being run. just
as the two cars came together, tn
foreman ordered him to step from the
car on which they were riding on to
the push car, and ut the same
time ,ignalcd another OF the men To
apply the brake, which slackened their
speed enough to cause gap Of few
feet between the cars.
In stepping back To comply with
| the order he fell upon his back in the
middle of the railroad track and the
car. with its load Of live men, tools,
and water kcg, in all weighing fully a
ton, passing over him. A rot on the
under side Of the car caught his feet
and doubled him up 50 that his feet
struck his face. As he rolled over,
/ the bull-whcel struck his back and
I inflicted the injury that came 50 near
proving fatal. The ear was raised
from the rails aud thrown OIL the
track,

Tecumseh, was summoned. After
wards DR.. &. G.. Ganord, nr, Yodcn
and DR.. Watcns, all OF Wymorc, Ncb.,
were called in consultation, but they
could afford no relief, About the lst
ui October he became paralyzcd from
his waist down. The SENSE Of feeling
entirely left his legs, which became
drawn one across the other. DR.. Liy-
2 ingston, OF Plattsmputh, Neh., the
head physician OF the Il. " NJ X. H.
system, was summoned to treat the
case, but finally informed his patient
that he could not live to see July, 1893.
H. had not the means to pay the eN-
, penscs OF law suit against the rail-
road company, but the company's at
} torncys very willingly compromised
! the claim for damages by paying him
$4,000. His condition continued To
grow worse, the eNcruCiating pain in
hi, back never ccasing, until upon
the recommendation aud by the re-
, quest ot q lady friend, Mrs. W. e..
! Swan. Of Tccumsch, Ncb., he began
- taking Pink Pills for Pale People To

/ no more faith in them than | would
have had ia eating handful Of dirt

q "a day OF February, taking one after
r each meal, and in ten days time, IL
| his surprise and intense delight, the
pain began 10 leave him. For seven
months he had suffered continuously,
and his Joy when relief came can he
imagined but not described, lie con
% tinued taking the Pink Pills until tn,

uf March he could go about his ordi
/ nary work without any Inconvenience,
lie considers himself entirely curct
5 aud feels rs well as he ever did, eNcep
that his back is not rs strong as i
wa heiorc he was hurt.
