sores even to back Of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began ~ pimples. his little
face was disngured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags Of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
