Death Has No Terrors.
N. o. States

The remarkable feature OF the
case of b. Sanders Walker, the
Macon, Ga, banker, was the COM
posture with which he faced death
after Internationally swallowing
poison. Throughout a week the
doomed man talked calmly about
his condition and, just before pass
ing into q state of coma which
ended in death, be said: IF this
is death, then none need fear its
tsrrors."
He was, indeed. dying, and had
been dying for q week; but tho
process of dissolution was not at
tended by any of the terrors gen-
orally associated with the thought
of death. For this reason his tes-
timony ought to be gratifying to
many thousands of men and NO.
men who could not bring them-
selves to believe similar DECLARE
tions by medical scientists aud
others who have studied life and
death together with their phsno-
msna.
The case of Mr.. Sanders, how
ever is proof that nature pre-
pares both the mind and body for
the final event in human sxistencs,
80 that the dying pass away with
out fear of the change. There are
exceptions, of course, as there are
to every rule, but it is dsmonstra'
ted by actual experience and by
scientific investigation that dsatf
10 not tho terrible thing, physical
ly and meptally, that it is general
ly thought to be.
