1t is on record that upon a chilly |
April day, few years ago, an eight |
year boy fell into the East river at
the foot of East Eighth street, New
York, and when all efforts to rescue him |
had failed, Edward Donneliy, at risk of |
his own life, plunged into the water and |
when himself nearly exhausted, saved |
the boy from drowning. 1t was
humane AMI self-sacrificing deed, and re-
ceived deserved commentator in all the
newspapers.
There is sequel to this accident,
however, which thus far has not been
published. 1t is to the effect that Dom
nelly was paralyzed as a result of the
cold plunge and came near diving.
Auburn people have known the family
since his wife was Amanda Grammar
and his sister Mrs. S. d. Cory, of 81
Moravia Street. Donnelly himself de-
scribes the rescue and the result
81 was general foreman of the F, A.
Mulgrew Saw Mills, foot of Eighth
street, N. Y, on the East river. 1t was
on the Goth of April, 1889, that the boy
fell into the river and | rescued him
from drowning. At that time was in
the water so long that was taken with
a deathly chill, and soon became so stiff
fened up and weak that could neither
work nor walk. For some time | was
under treatment OF DR.. George Nc
Donald, who said | had Locomotor
Ataxia. He finally gave me up, and on
the LIST OF June, 1892, my wife and came
up to Auburn.
"When the disease first came upon me
the numbness began in my heels, and
soon the whole of both my feet became
affected. There was cold feeling across
the small of my back and downwards,
and sense of soreness and tight pres
sure on the chest. The numbness
gradually extended up both legs and
into the lower part of my body. l felt
that death was creeping up to my
vitals. was still taking the medicine
1T was lodide of Potassium said his
wife), and was being rubbed and having
plasters put all over my body, but with
no benefit.
81 sent to the Chas. H. Sugar Com
pany, the popular Auburn druggists and
chemists, at 100 and III Genesee street,
and got three boxes of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and begun
taking them. In three weeks time |
was SO improved that from being
helpless, | was able to help myself
and to get up and go to work, and
to walk every day from No. "a Walnut
street, where l then lived, to Os-
borne's New Irvine Factory, Seymour
and Cottage streets than mile
where | was then employed, but all the
while | was taking Pink Pills.
Then DR.. Patchen, of Wisconsin,
uncle of my wife, and who was here on
a visit, began to poo-hoo at me for tax
ing Pink Pills, and finally persuaded me
to stop taking them and let him treat
me. When he returned to the West he
left prescription with DR.. Hyatt, OF
Auburn, who also treated me. But their
treatment did me no good, and after a
while the old trouble returned and was
getting bad again. Then began to take
Pink Pills; have taken them ever since
am taking them now; have taken in al
nearly 20 boxes at an entire cost of less
than $1,000 (my other treatment cost me
: a pile OF money!, and again l am wei
and able to work.
'If | was able, would at my own ex.
, pense, publish the virtues of DR.. Will
Jams Pink Pills to the whole world anC
especially in New York City, where
am much better known than am here. ;
