Mr.. Gedney thinking the cries anne
from some person in the Pioneer

the cries of distress came from some
one in his family, and ran all the way
home. On arriving he collapsed, and
DR.. West was called and it was sew
eral hours before the doctor could
calm him, and for the rest of the
night he was delirious. 1t was not
until this morning that he was in full
possession of his mental faculties and
no enc is allowed to see him.
The physician has ordered complete
rest and eession from all business of
any nature and he will be taken

shocked on learning the news this
