several railways of the United States

she had travelled much and has seen
great many passengers fatally hurt
who could have been relieved by being
made unconscious. Her letter concludes
as follows:
Would it not be an unspeakable
comfort to bystanders as well as the
sufferers If those dying in agony could
be rendered unconscious by few
