A NOBLE FIGHT.
AN EMINENT SOUTHERN LAWYERS LONG
CONFLICT WITH DISEASE.


versity and suHering-The Great
Victory Won by Science Over Il
Stubborn Disease.
Foremost among the best known lawyers
and farmers of North Carolina stands Col
onel Isaac a. Sugg, of Greenville, Pitt coun-
ty, man who has climbed the ladder Of
success despite the heavy burden of dis
ease with which he has been weighted. 1t
has been up and down fight for twen-
ty-tWo years The iron-clad will of the
mar on side and disease on the other.
AT first the man gained a noble victory
but nature soon rebelled and disease was
the conqueror. Prosperity gave way to adj
versity, and it seemed indeed as if his
cup of misery full. Now science has
taken hand, and with his suffering eased,
the sterling determination Of the man has
once more asserted itself, and he is again
ascending the ladder of prosperity.
Before misfortune overlook Colonel Sugg
ne was known throughout the county as
man OF great enterprise, sterling principles
ana high ability as lawyer From the time
ne settleu IN GreenVille he took an active
interest IN the progress and development
Oh the town. Success followed every ven-
ture ana the sun of prosperity never shone
brighter over the head of any man. Then
came the clouds and with them the be-
ginning OF sixteen long years of agony.
A reporter. who visited Colonel Sugg for
history of his case, found him in his office
sowing an intricate land case. 1t was hard
10 peheVe that this hale and hearty looking
man who took your hand with an iron grip
anu met your glance eye to eye, had been
ON the edge of eternity for years; that his
lie had been measured by minutes and his
relatives and friends were resigned to the
loss Oh MN whom they loved Yet such is
the case as Colonel Sueg's own words and
the statement of the townspeope prove
1t has been twenty-five years since be-
came resident of this town." began Col
onei Sugg. 81 settled here one year after
l left the University of Kentucky Even
then the first SYMPTOMS of gravel were as
sorting themselves but were slight and 1
passed them over lightly, giving my atten-
ton to the practice of law and other en-
terprise. Gradually, however, my disease
developed, and fight it as | would it seemed
to gain a stronger foOthold day by day
until my misery complete. For sixteen
years [ never knew what it was to be free
from pain, not pain as an ordinary man
thinks of it, but agOnizng, eXcrucating,
uncomfortable pain. Tortured from head TO
foot, at times thrown into spasms when it
would require the united strength of four
men to hold me until | was stupetied with
stimuants and opiates. / could not sit, lie
time. Sleep was out of the question unless
brought about by the strongest stimulants
or opiates. Oh how many, many times have
| thought of putting end to that life of
suffering. But then my mind would revert
to my wife, my children, my home and
would restrain my hand with the hope that
some other means of escape would be offer
ed. [ searched the archives of medicine for
relief Doctors were consulted, Iitha waters,
min WA
lants of all sorts We're tried without avail.
Why, [ sem clear to the West ladies' for
medicine and yet the result was the same.
Il kept at my work as long as l could but
nature gave way at last and l succumbed
to the inevitable. My entire nervous system
had been shattered by the stimuIants and
opiates l had taken, my blood had actCally
turned to water, my weight had dropped
from 173 pounds to 123, and it seemed 10
everybody that the end was in sight. Why,
l could not bear the gentle hand Of my wife
to battle my limbs with tspid water /
simply living from hour to hour. / mad mace
my will, settled my business ana waited
for the last strand of life to snap.
''It was at this time that a somewhat SIM
liar case my own was p.uuGht 20 my
notice. This man had suffered very mach
as | had, his life had been daspaired Of as
mine had and yet he had been cured. Think
what that little word meant 10 me-cUred.
The report stated that the work had be- II
accomplished by q medicine khCWn as II.

that it vas true IN detail. Then l pro-

frightened me; there was a tinglnS sens g.

a stimulant or opate, they said TO and /
kept on taking them and kept on Improving.
I began to sleep like a hedlthfdl child,
sound, calm and peaceful. My appetite came
back and | began to long for the good ttin@s
of life. My nerves were SOOthed ahH restored
tG their normal condition and fet Ike d
new man. But the greatest blessing vas the
mertal Improvement. 1 began 10 read and

realized that l again myself. After

life is beyond doubt, and | am spreading
