Mrs. Croker, when seen by the writer,
said: ~ have worked very hard and some
fourteen years ago became run down in
health and strength and in fact got 80
weak that it was necessary to call . physi-
clan, who said that had very bad case
of liver trouble, and an liberated stomach;
the liberated stomach is what caused me
so much pain and my liver trouble caused
my constipation and severe headaches.
took treatment and followed it up for sew
eral months, but seemed to get no perma-
nent relief. My suffering grew worse and
none OF the local doctors seemed to be
able to help me. Was advised to 60 to
Boston, where ! consulted several spec
ialists; still, continued to suffer and
constantly grew larger and was told it
was enlargement OF the liver. After be-
ing treated in Boston some time went to
Lowell, Mass, where also consulted sew
eral physicials, but as / seemed to get no
better, l came to Portland and went into
the hospital; the treatment at the hos
pital and the rest seemed to do me little
good, but shortly was Is bad on as ever,
so went to Lewiston and again consulted
physician, but they all seemed to tell
me the same story = that had an en-
larged liver, Q stomach trouble, kidney
trouble, together with q valvular heart
trouble that at times would throw me into
spasms which would last so long that my
husband and neighbors thought would
never come out OF them, as / would be
perfectly unconscious and cold as though
was dead. ! gradually grew worse and
kept bloating, as the doctors called it,,
from gas i'm my stomach and bowels, until
about four years ago, when one Of Ban
gor's leading physicians made an exam
nation and told me l had fibroid tumor.
This seem very strange after so many ply
sicians in Boston, Lowell, Mass; Port
land, Lewiston and Bangor, Me-, had told
me it was my stomach trouble which af-
fected my heart, causing those dreadful
headaches and numb spells. After being
informed that had tumor, l consulted
eight physicians and they ali agreed that
IL was a tumor and that the only relief
was an operation at the hospital, but
reading in the papers Of several tumors
that had been removed by DR.. Morrow
without the use Of the knife, and after
writing these people and finding they
were very much pleased with what the
doctor had done for them, my husband on
Oct. It'll, 1907, took me to DR.. Merrow's
office. Without my telling him anything
in regard to my case, he asked me how

OBITUARY.


A great shadow rests over this commu-
nifty in the death OF Mrs. Helen Stevens,
which occurred 1t her home Wednesday
evening, June 10. She was the daughter
OF DR.. r. H. and Mrs. Jane (Simpeon)
Brigham, OF Castine, and the widow OF
Capt. Samuel Stevens, who died at Callao
in 1859. After the death Of her father
and her husband, Mrs. Stevens, with
her son, then a mere child, came here for
. home to be near her brother, the late
DR.. F. W. Brigham. Her trouble, heart
difficulty, while it deferred her from the
activities of life, was not attended by
great suffering, and even to the end her
brave and hopeful spirit manifested itself
to all those about her.
Few persons have lived more ardently
loved or died more deeply lamented She
was devoted and loyal friend to young
and old alike. While we all feel deeply
her departure, the blow falls more heavily
on her son, DR.. ]. F. Stevens, of MILL
nocket, who during her last illness had
been with her, devotediy caring for her
as no other had been able to do, and who
has the sympathy of the whole community.
Services were held in the church here
Saturday morning, June 10, conducted by
Rev. Mr.. Purdy, who spoke beautiful
words Of hope and trust, largely empha-
sizing the fact of immortality all through
his remarks. A large concourse of friends
attended the services, bringing with them
lovely flowers which quite covered the
casket. Burial at Castine Sunday.
