The people still flock to see Abbo. Sim

manner, probably no greater man ever
came to Savannah or ever did more for
suffering humanity. Medical men Of ed
ucation and ability admire his work. and
only those who are affected with petty
jealousy critisize him or his methods. He
does not claim to cure everything or in
curables, but hundreds of reliable citi-
zens testify to his wonderful skill, and
many claim they believe that he posses
ses some supernatural or more than ordi-
nary skill, as many cures have been per-
formed that appear miraculous, being
pronounced incurable and given up by
eminent physicians of this city. One
thing particularly remarkable is that the
many hundreds that have been treated
not one but speaks in highest praise OF
his work. He treats the poor free. and
never refuses to relieve suffering humani-
| ty in any way in his power.
