A NOBLE SACRIFICE
Indian Kills Suffering Son

death of an Indian there, but was

was George Sam.
! Il is Georges wife who is wearing
pitch and ashes. Sam had a son ana
daughter. The daughter is afflicted
with st. Wits dance and good physi-
clans have been unable to relieve her.
A short time ago the son was taken
down with a serious malady and after
the Indian medicine man had failed
to effect a cure. a regular white ply
sician was called in. He told the In
dian father that nothing could be
done, but that the boy would probably
linger some time.
The boz suffered frightfulIy. and.
after the father could endure it no
longer, he seized his shotgun and
placed it to his sons head. killing hin,
instantly to relieve his suffering.
e almost immediately the fathe.
discharged the remaining barrel into
MS W head, likewise suffering n,
death.
1t may not be the Christian method

could kill his own son. when he
thought so much of that son as not TO
