NO BLOOD POISONING.

The fact that the wound i'm the presi-

intention" is feature not at all unusual
In such cases, explained one of the physi-
clans.
On the contrary. IL is usual for gunshot
wounds TO heal by what is termed sec
ond intention" through granulation.
Especially I'm this case with older per-
sons, whereas In the case OF young people
they usually heal by first intentions"
There is absolutely no indication OF
blood poisoning i'm the presidents case"
said the doctor when n newspaper man
hinted that the irritation which had ap-
peared at the exterior wound might have
partaken OF that nature.
