A man got on the train due In this
city, from Boston, at 8 o'clock, last
Sunday evening, at the Back Bay sta
ton, Boston. He paid cash fare to this
city. On the way he was taken sick
and asked to have doctor telegraphed
for at Putnam. He was met
at the train by doctor and Sergeant
Hayes, of the police department, and
taken to the hospital. There ii was
found that his condition was critical
and an immediate operation necessary.
The man was suffering great pain and
was apparently not in his right mind.
When an operation was suggested he
forbid it, and told those present he
would bring suit il they operated upon
him.
The police department was called
upon to furnish watcher, as the man
was troublesome when he was at
tackled by pains in the stomach. Mon.
day morning he had quieted down,
and when asked about himself gave
various names and addresses in Bos-
ton. Communication was established
with the Boston police, but nothing
could be learned.
Finally, Tuesday afternoon, he gave
his name as William Henry Johnson,
Of No. 80 Harvey street, East Boston,
and relatives were commu nicated with
but they refused TO have anything to
do with him, but gave no reason there
for. Wednesday morning the patient
insisted upon leaving the hospital, aud
took an early morning train for Bos-
ton.
Scars upon the mans body showed
he had been operated on for stomach
OF intestinal troubles. Ualess he sub
mits TO an operation II is believed that
his trouble, which was apparently
caused by the use Of drugs, will prove
fatal.
