great enjoyment in her trip and said
she felt very we'll

Mrs Stanford planned the trip to
HaIeiwa- Then she said she would
retire early so as to be refresh ed for
the trip. At $50 Mrs Stanford sent
for her maid, May Hunt. whom she
had recently employed. She then said
to me: I shall retire and take my
medicine; please get it for me-
''I got teaspoonful of bicarbonate
of soda, one purgative tablet and a
bottle of Bartlett water. Mrs. STAN
ford forgot to take the medicine and
lay down. and slept. AS soon as she
awoke she took the medicine and
again retired.
e Mrs. Stanford soon thereafter was
seized with commissions which threw
her out of bed. The maid and myself
came in answer to her call, as did also
a guest from a nearby room. She
said, I am poisoned. The commissions
continued in spite of efforts of the
physician

years ago, but 1 think it has been. re-
