J. A. BATES OPERA TED UPON,
The Mans Recovery Is Very Doubtful.
Case of Appc ndicitiS.

For some time J. \. Bates. of Park
street, has been suffering from "A NAL
ady which necessitated his removal to
the hospital. Here his case was dag
nosed as appendicitis and it was found
that an operation was necessary, the
chances of his recovery in either case
being very doubtful. The operation
was performed by Dr.. II. G. Wheeler,
assisted by Drs. Gillis and Shields.
The patient was found To be in ter
rihle condition. the malady being in an
advanced stage. The appendix had
completely sloughCd off. However a
great quantity of pus was taken from
the abdominal cavity. The patient
seems a little easier today but the
physicians can give no encouragement
as general peritOnits has set in. Mr..
Bates was employed in the blacksmith
shop of Nicholas Moon, and has a
family consisting of a wife and three
children.
