 Judge Cable had been a great sufferer for two or three months past with swelling of the glands of the neck, with which he had been troubled more or less for many years. Early last spring he had an attack of the grip, which con fined him to the house for a time. Ral- lying from this, he resumed his duties as Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, but only for a few days, when he had relapse and was again confined to the house for quite awhile. After this he was able to be out again and came daily, for a few days only, to his office, The difficulty in his throat be- came threatening, and his physician, Dr. Whittemore, was in daily attend ance upon him. The difficulty increas- ing, a resort to a surgical operation was found to be imperatively necessary
