John B. Scace Speaks to Reporter Of Stirring Scenes
Escaped with Slight Wound, but, Like Other Vet

From the Albany, N. r., Journal.

Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, under Col.
Charles F. Walcott. During the term of his
re-enlistment Sergeant Scace participated in
some of the hottest struggles of the war. Many
a gray-haired veteran to-day recalls the scenes
of Hatcher's Run, the fall of Petersburg and
the battle of Sailors Creek.
After his honorable discharge, June 4, 1865,
Mr.. Scace returned to Albany and settled
down once again to his business and social in.
terests. He has resided in the city ever since,
1t would seem that now, of all times, his peace
and happiness would have been uninterrupted.
Such was not to be the case, for four years
ago, while engaged in experimenting the rails
ing of the immense smokestack of the Albany
Electric power house, the lever of q loOsened
windlass struck him heavy blow across the
back. The effect of the blow was not at first
apparent, he being able to leave his bed in a
few days. But the worst was to follow, for
without warning he was seized with sciatic
rheumatism in all its virulence. Untold agony
followed.
Said Mr.. Scace, "I could not sleep for the
pain. No one will know the tortures the rheu.
matism gave me. I don't know how I lived
during those days. +! became little more than
skin and bones, and it seemed like life didn't
have anything but suffering in it. Cures? I
tried every so-called rheumatic cure that was
ever invented. I gave all of them good trial

and neighbors recommended remedy after

tism went on just the same. Well, after had
almost had the life tortured out of me, came
across newspaper account of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, and I thought might as well add
another name to the list as not, so I ordered
some of my druggist.

l can't say too much for them" Mr.. Scace ex-
claimed enthusiastically in conclusion.
This is but one of the many cases in which
Pink Pills have taken such a beneicent part
in the history of humanity.
Mr.. Scace is now enjoying the fruits Of an
un usually large business, managed solely by
himself, and covering almost the entire east
ern portion of the State. Mr.. Scace is also an
ivory carver of marked ability, which he fol-
lows solely for his own pleasure. Many little
trinkets, carved by the light of the campfire,
attest his skill in this direction.
Far from being solicited to recommend the
curative which had taken such load of misery
from his life, in his gratitude his praise for it
is unstinted and unceasing. And from his own
statements one may easily see that, when he
does cease to sing its virtues, it will be to
answer the last mastering in.
