bridge gang working near Little
port was taken suddenly ill Thurs
day night with cramps and kind
of cholera His case was SO severe
that he had to have the members
of the crew wait upon him and Mr.
Clifford was called and consulted.
He told them he had medicine in
the form of Chamberlain's Colo,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
that he thought would help him
out and accordingly several doses
were administered with the result
that the fellow was able to be
