Mrs. Sprague and her daughter, said
that DR. Parker of Floris. who attend

nor a toe. At first it was thought
that she would lose at least several
of her fingers and possibly some of
her toes. A Mr.. Baker. who took up
the track of the young woman and
followed it in the snow. estimated
that she travelled twenty-seven miles
during the night, which was the means
of preventing her from freezing to
death.

this state OF mind she wandered
back and forth between Ottumwa and
her fathers home. about nine miles
