REMARKABLE OPERATION
Bullet Removed From Mans Brain
Where 1t Had Been for Months.


Where 1t Had Been for Months.
Terre Haute, Ind, Jan. 12.-Early in
March, 1900 Judson e. Gum, twenty
three years old, was the victim of the
accidental discharge of q revolver, the
bullet striking Gum in the head, pass
ing through the brain until it lodged
at the base OF the skull Gum fell I'M
conscious and to all appearances was
MORALLY wounded. In this condition
he remained for several weeks, but,
contrary to expectation, he slowly re
gained his reason and recovered SUI
ficiently to do light work on his faith
er's farm After a time, however, it
was noticed that his mental faculties
were impaired, and there were signs
of epilepsy, and six weeks ago he was
removed to hospital in northern Illi-
nois and placed on the operating table,
but after an incision had been made
the physicians diagnosed his condition
as hope ess and he was returned to
his home to die.
Two weeks ago q further effort was
made in his behalf and he was brought
to the Union hospital. this city, where
he was again stricken with a violent
epileptic attack Then followed an
X-ray examination by which the posi-
ton of the bullet was exactly deter
mined, and eventually an operation
was had and the bullet was removed
from the base of the brain together
with a FRAGMENT of the bone carried
with it in its flight. Altogether the
operation lasted one hour and a half,
and 1t left the patient very much ex-
hausted and barely alive. Since then,
however, he has continued to improve
mentally and physically, and hope OF
permanent recovery is entertained.

Justice Galbraith IS the author OF a
| unanimous decision of the Supreme
Court, which vacates decree by Judge
Robinson in the suit of William Lone
Austin against R. William Holt, Annie
| Harris, Elizabeth K Richardson and E
V. Richardson, also the suit of John
D. Holt Jr. against William Lono Aus
tin by writ of error.
William Lono Austin brought a bill
to declare trust and enforce a charge
on real estate, under the will of his
adaptive mother and guardian, Eliza
Wood Holt, whereby she devised all OF
her property to her husband, Robert
William Holt. SUBJECT to charge ere
ated as follows: L hereby charge my
estate with the payment of the sum OF
| twenty-five dollars per month for the
board, maintenance and education OF
William Lono Austin during his mi
nority, and the payment thereof to be
continued thereafter during the term of
his natural life"
Bruce Cartwright was appointed adj
ministrator, acting as such from Feb
ruary 9, 1892, until his discharge on
October 70, 1893. In his administration
he sold real estate to defendants named
in these suits and to Holt, plaintiff in
error. applying the proceeds to payment
alleged that the sales were not confirm
Cd Nv fI7o hat tIa
real estate was sold for less than its
value. He prayed that the defendants
be decreed respectively to hold the
property purchased in trust and under
charge to pay the legacy already men
toned, naming $3I25 as the aggregate
due to date, and interest and costs. By
the decree the properties were declared
subject to the claim in the sum of $345o
as aggregate of the monthly charges to
date, together with $4,000 interest and
$3I costs, total of $648I. This amount
the purchasers of the real estate were
forthwith decreed to pay to William
Lono Austin.
In vacating the decree and remanding
the cause to the Circuit Judge, the Su-
prene Court holds that the debts were
a first charge on the real estate. there
being no personal property to pay them,
and says that the contention of the plain
tiff failed to take account of the vital
principle contained in the maxim that
"a man must be just before he is gen
erous." The law of the cases at bar is
thus summed up in the syllabus:
A gratuity made a charge on real
estate by will is taken subject to the
of the debts against the estate.
Ii the entire estate is consumed in pay
ing debts the beneficiary takes nothing.
Where legatee files a bill in equity
to enforce trust against property CON
veyed by the devisee without authority
from the probate court and it is answer
ed that the property was sold for its
full value and the entire proceeds de-
livered to the administrator and con-
