MIR. VI. II. LEONARD VERY ILL.
He Is Believed to He Suffering with
a. CancerOus TumOr.

Mr. NJ b. Leonard. superintendent of
telegraph of the Chesapeake and Rail-
way Company, lies seriously i'll at the Vir-
ginia Hospital. and the gravest fears
are entertained as to his recovery.
1t was only about twelve days ago that
Mr.. Leonard first began to complain of
pains i'm his neck and right breast. The
pains were followed by a malformation,
and becoming alarmed. Mr.. Leonard went
to his family physician DR.. Taber, who
pronounced il a tumor. Other symptoms
developed. which led TO the belief that 1t
was a cancerous tumor. and il spread
rapidly TO the patients wind-pipe, and
affected his respiration very seriously.
Last Wednesday Mr. Leonard was
taken to the Virginia Hospital TO undergo
an operation for the removal of the
tumor. but when the physicians came TO
diagnose the case his condition was
found to be such that an operation would
inevitably have proved fatal. 1t was
decided that his system would have TO be
toned up before anything could be done,
but last night il was announced that no
oneration would take place here. but
that Mr. Leonard would leave to-day for
chicago TO place himself in the hands
~ the renowned specialist, DR.. Fem.
Mr. Leonard. in speaking to a friend
last Tuesday. said he was utterly at
80 IN account for his condition. He
had Invariably enjoyed the best of health,
and could not remember that he nad
,oxen any risk or suffered from any
comnIaint that could possibly lead to his
nresent malady.
