could have been so suddenly laid low. But
it was true and many weeks passed before
his well.known form and kindly face re-

THE WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE OF A
WELL-KN0WN CHELSEA MAN.

Stricken with am Kncurablo Disease and

(EFons the Argus GnG Patriot, Montpelier, TE.l
Eight years ago Geo. Hutchinson moved
from Bradford to Chelsea, VT, and bought
the sawmill at the latter place. He was
known as one of the strongest men in that
section. On Dec. 20, '92 while at work In
the mill, he was struck in the back by
flying board, which seriously injured him
and incapacitated him for work Of any kind.
AS result of this, LocomotoF Ataxia set in,
(this is form of paralysis which deprivys
the patient of all use of his lower limbs
The Argus & Patriot interviewed Mr.. HutcS
inson to-day, and his story is here given in
his own words.
"My back ached continually and my legs
began to grow numb and to be less and less
disable. By the 18th of April could do
absolutely nothing and was scarcely able to

the Mary Fletcher Hospital at Burlington,
TO be treated, and took their advice. When
I left home my friends babe me goodbye,
never expecting to see me alive again.
The physicians at the hospital told me that
my case was a serious one and was com.
pletely discouraged. / remained at the
hospital seven weeks and took the medicines
which the doctors gave me. / felt better at
the hospital and thought that was recover.

had an electric battery under their advice.
The improvement, however, did not continue
and began to give up hope. August LIST,
1898, could not get out of my chair without
assistance, and if / got down upon the floor,
could not get up alone. About this time /
chanced to read an account of the wonder.
