| Gaying Been Dumb For Sixty-five YearA,
DIR. Livingston Speaks Again.
DR.. Livingston, resident of the little
village of Bennettsville, Chenango coun-
ty, has regained the power of speech and
hearing after having been a deaf mute
for nearly 65 years. About two weeks
ago he awoke in the night with very
severe pain in his head, as if he had been
struck with club. He called out to his
wife, who was sleeping beside him. At
the sound of his voice she awolze. aston
ished to hear him pronounce her name.
She had never before heard him speak.
AS soon as she recovered from her sur
prise she asked him what was the mat
ter. Her words were the first he had
heard since he was an infant, and the
revelation of his changed condition as
founded him. The pain in the mean
time grew less acute, and he and his wife
talked until morning of his wonderful
recovery.
The news spread quickly, and all the
next day the doctor was overwhelmed
WIFI conversation at
first caused him great annoyance, but
he has gradually become accustomed to
it. His vocabulary, which at first was
limited, has increased, and he has no
difficulty in expressing himself.
When DR.. Livingston was years old,
a severe attack of scarlet fever left him
entirely deaf. The few childish words
he knew gradually were forgotten, and
by the time he was years old be became
a mute. Despite his past affection, the
old man is intelligent and well read. He
is at a loss to account for his strange |
good fortune, and the physicians in the
neighborhood can shed no light ON the |
mystery.
DR.. Livingston is anxious to have his /
case investigated by the medical frater-
nifty, in hope that some explanation as to |
his recovery can be given. The pain
which he felt in his head gradually passed
down his spine into his legs and then
left him entirely. Though II years old.

scenes while yet it was noon, and this

ing her at Post Mills. Mrs. Ladd died
on Sabbath evening after a few DAYS
complaining of headache, not an un-
usual thing. DR.. Weymouth saw her
during the week and on Saturday saw
that her brain was involved, that a
gathering had formed near the base
and no human aid could avail. Mr..
Laid came here few years since and
built steam mill, and with his young
daughter Mary, will be chief among
many, many mourners. Mrs. Laid
was peaceful in life and in death, and
to us who knew her imperfectly her
memory is dear. What then must it
be to her dear kindred. Her five chill
dren, her sisters Mrs. Knight and Mrs.
Fulton, and three brothers from
Montague were present.
