MISS DIR. LEGOLA ADAMS.
Nurse and Physician.


The proycrbial hospitality of min
ng camp was not long in manifest
ug itself DR. Adams soon had a
stream Of social visitors. Everyone
went 90 see her from the marshal to
the saloon loafer An the women
and girls called. and much ado was
made over her. The men assured her
that they would turn their trade
her way and IN" superintendent of
several Of the mines invited her to
become the mines physician, from
motives of western gallantry.
From the interest She so quickly
and spontaneously created it would
not have taken much additional en-
thusia III to have had il decreed that
the men doctors should go. Some
Que did suggest this, upon the ground
that one doctor and two undertakers
wore enough for Monarch, but an
other rotortrd that meant the "can-
mag" of DR.. Basil Cuthbcrt. "the poor
mans friend" The recollection OF
his many acts OF Kindness settled
that vagraut idea dccisivciy. Fur
thcrmurc when the proposition came
to Or. Adams ears she forcefully dis
couraged t.. She also protested
against the zeal OF the populace in
continuing the reception TO her day
after day, a. IL she were there merely
~ % tourist instead Of as business
woman. Not only that, but some OF
those whose enthusiasm would not
down went SO far as 20 have them
selves examined for some imagined
ailments. They were willing to pay

TOR their amusement, but she woul0
not accept it and had to content her
self with Diminishing them with a
good-ratured scolding.
But all this was far from the pur-
pose of her migration to Monarch.
She had left the crowded east be-
cause Their Advancement and even
the attaining of foothold in her
profession was too difficult and prob
lematical. Hers was a retiring nature.
For the practicing of her profession
she preferred a town TO city. and a
camp to a town. The opportunities.
socially and professionally were bet
ter. For these reasons she had set
tied in Monarch.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1901-11-21

IL was subject of common re-
mark that DR.. Adams only apparent
enemy was Mrs. Gerson, who con-
Quoted a millinery store. Mrs. Ger
son was the only woman who had
not assisted in the reception to Dr.
Adams. She had not even at any
time called on her. She had started
to do so once, going over with her
young daughter, on a day when DR..
Adams office was filled with callers,
but it was noticed that she turned
quickly away after appraising the
room and its occupant. She excused
herself 10 those who later questioned
her that she was suddenly taken with
a spell of dizziness.
But it was known fact and much
commented upon that this vertigo
had not lasted all the time since then.
and yet in the course of two years
She had not even 50 much as passed
the time Of day with the doctor. She
had, furthermore, declined to attend
the New Years ball to which all the
camp turned out. 1t naturally oc-
CURED to Mrs. Gerson's friends that
DR.. Adams promised presence might
have tended to keep her away, she
mad shown such pronounced aver
ion for the doctor, They went SO
far as to question DR.. Adams wheth-
er she knew Mrs. Gerson. The doc,
tor professed not to, though she said
the face was familiar and all that
All Mrs. Gerson would permit herself
to say was: 81 don't believe in WON
an doctors nohow"
II was plainly apparent that this
was not altogether the cause OF ser
intense aversion for DR.. Adams. Il
was in the nature of things to the
orile that another reason existed, of
which DR.. Adams probably knew
nothing,
The observing women OF Monarch
could not help noticing how rapidly
Mrs. Gerson had aged in the past two
or three years. While it was true
that She suffered from chronic all
ment before the excitement of DR..
Adams arrival, her general hcalta
intervening short time III appearance
she had aged fully dozen years.
and now was growing sickly and
emuciated, No one seemed able to
account for il.
Nothing of her autecedents prior
to her residence in Monarch was
known She had removed to Monarch
from a camp near by. Her huS band
was miner He had met his death
while blasting near Monarch. Some
said her daughter was by a former
marriage, but the statement was gen.
orally taken as mere conjecture.
1t was singular that despite Mrs.
Gerson's dislike for DR.. Adams her
/ daughter should be practically fond
OF her. Miss Gcrson spent much Of
her time in the doctors office as she
could spare from her mothers store.
DR.. Adams rcciprocated this affection.
IN her opinion she passed no hour
better than when iu the company of
Miss Gerson, though she was scarce

There was one who We'd with Miss
Ger-on for DR.. Adams companions
ship This was DR.. Basil Cuthbert
just as DR. Adams had about con
cluded that the o,her physicians were
going TO show their displeasure al
her arrival by ignoring her, DR.. Cuth.
bert called. He was the first Of the
doctors, TO do this. He had post.
poned his visit TO give the mob's en-
thusiasm time TO wane.

When the local ball team were leav- ing Woodbury, fresh lad of that town sang out to the Newtown manager: Say you had better go home and feed your players on milk" which caused the doctor to retort: "Young man, only babies, hogs and calves like you, are fed on milk" Another Woodbury citizen shouted out to "Jack" Brew: ''Say, you Sandy Hook chaps, why don't you hitch a rope to that pole (Mr Brew stands over six feet in his stockings) and let us know how you feel when you arrive at Newtown." !" "Young fellow," solemnly retorted ''Matc6,' "I'm coming over here again." "What fOr?" asked the Woodbury citizen, somewhat startled. "I'm coming back here to get you, take you to the seashore, where will rent the empty space in your head for bath houses" This caused the crowd to applaud, and the Woodbury citizen retired from the contest.
