aged 81, died after living ten months

Mr.. Schwartz was afflicted with .

and three other operations followed
within the two years following. Last
summer his condition became so seri-

other operation was all that could pro.
long his life.
like attempt had never been per
formed. Physicians found that all the
bones en- the right side of the trunk
were diseased and must be removed
to insure a continuance of life. The
operation was held Oct. last at the
Detroit sanitarium, and was witnessed
by physicians from all over Michigan,
medical students and members of the
medical profession from adjoining
states. All the ribs on the right side,
the collar bone. the breastbone, part
of the hip and shoulder blade were re.
moved and the patient was left with
out any frame for his right side
Mr.. Schwartz recovered, but was
never able to lie in any other position
than on his back. His fortitude was
declared marvellous by all physicians
under whose notice the patient came.
No one who Witnessed the operation
thought he would survive. For some
time past his death was momentGrily
expected, but he constantly rallied un.
