 The old man stated to Captain Watts that he had no home since h's wife died recently in Memphis. He stated that he applied to Dr. 4. B. Loving, the county physician, to be admitted to the Davis Hospital, upon note that had been given him by "a Y. M. C. A. official He was not admitted to the hosp:tal and had no place to go except to wander on the street.
 The old man states that he is carpenter by trade and is competent enough to work on any job Captain Watts states that he appears to be an excellent old man, but not being used to this climate and from grief is broken down in health and needed at tention. He is originally from Scot land and has been in this country since 1867.

 Dr. Loving states that when McMil- Ian applied to him he gave him an order to County Judge Gould, in

 go to the Davis Hospital and also states that he has no right to send a
 person to the hospital, but can. only go as far as sending them to Judge Gould with recommendation to that effect. Judge Gould states that the , old man did not come to him with an
 order of any kind.
