extremity Of poverty and want could
be possible, yet in a despicably poor
abode Rev. Frank K. Ward, superin-
tendent Of the Sunshine Mission, found
a man who at one time was worth be-
tween 100000 and $4,000. Amid these
slualid surroundings, the pool old fell
low. 20 years of age, left alone and
penniless, was found starving He was
taken from his damp and dirty bed to
Sunshine Mission, where he was given
a bath and clean clothes and all the
good things he could eat. Later he
was sent to the county home. where he
died. The body was brought back to
the mission for the funeral and Rev.
Mr. Ward went down in his own pocket
