MERCHANT SURVIVES
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

NOGALES, Aris,. Jan. 27.--One of
the most remarkable cases handled
BY local surgeons in recent years is
that OF Pedro Jamit, Syrian mer-
chant OF Tuzpan, Nayarit. Mexico. A
bullet that had been lodged in jam
it's back for several months was re-
moved recently at hospital here.
Jamit was held up and robbed OF
1900 by bandits. He was shot thru
the head. in the hip and in the stom-
ach. The first two bullets came out
of their own accord, while the one
that entered the stomach was remov-
ed by the surgeons.
After being wounded, Jamit was
taken into the mountains by the ban
dts. During the 16-days that he re-
mained there, he received no medica'
treatment. his wounds being washed
with cold water by an aged Mexican
nurse. Through the aid of Mexican
woman, the Syrian escaped and made
his way to the border.
Last year Jamit was robbed of So
900 by bandits.
