don. England. for demolition as In
sanitary But the tenant, an old man,
appeared before the council and told
remarkable story IN stay Of execu-
ton" He stated that he was 7s years
old, and lived in the cottage with his
wife and three children. For SO years
there had NOT been a case OF illness in
hts family His father and mother
lived in the cottage before him; his
father died at the age OF So and the
mother at 49, He did not think that
there could be much wrong with the
cottage in the face Of these facts. In
reply to the clerk the old fellow said
that personally he had never had a
doctor, and the only time a medical
man had been in his cottage was when
his little son had scalded his leg.
Under the exceptional circumstances
the council decided to adjourn the
matter for further inquiries to be
made.

Thompson, who lives with his moth

when he began his long rest. He was
looked after by his mother and his
presence in the house was hardly
known to the villagers. He would
have remained in bed for the rest
of his life In all probability had not

fairs.
Mrs Thompson, who Is now SO
years Of age, was at that time taken

Union infirmary Left helplessly alone,
Thompson was compelled to get up.
A search was made for the suit which
he discarded 20 years ago, but he was
unable to dress without assistance
Two neighbors we're called IN. and
the work Of squeezing him into the
clothes occupied the three men a
whole evening. When dressed he was
tao tired to walk and an ambulance
had TO be brought to convey him to

his mother was well enough to leave
the infirmary, when he followed heK
home. This time he was compelled
to walk, as the guardians refused an
ambulance.
