EFFORT TO SAVE STRANGER
(Reprinted from the state Gazette
Tuesday,

Striking evidence that the south
OF "befo' the war" remains the same
where real hospitality and friend
illness to the stranger are concern
ed, is given in a little story of the
death of w. H. (Tip) Taylor, of
this city, at Bluefield, W. Va, a lit
tie over week ago. The body of
Mr.. Taylor was brought home by
his wife early last week for inter
ment.
Mr.. Taylor, who was a man of
splendid physique and considered in
the best of health when he left here,
was stricken with stomach affec-
ton in the latter part of April
while he was located at Bluefield in
the interest of the Lambertville Rub
Der company. 1t was his habit to
register at the West Virginian hotel
as "Snag Proof Taylor, no home"
in order to attract special attention,
and in this way he made many ex-
cellent friends, both in a business
and social way, being one of the
most popular travelling statesmen to
visit that town.
After suffering two days he be-
came patient at the Bluefield SAM
tarium and upon receiving some
relief resumed his work, despite the
protests of Manager Ayres, of the
West Virginian, and other friends,
who tried to persuade him to go
home. He worked all day Saturday,
May 8, and returned to Bluefield
at 10 O'Clock that night. As he
stepped from the taxicab he fell to
the sidewalk and was Immediately
hurried to the sanitarium. His SER
ious condition was at once recogni-
zed by the physicians, and after
he had become greatly weakened
by two hemorrhages, it was decided
that his only chance for life was
blood TRANSMISSION.
Manager Ayres announced this in
the hotel lobby, but while ten men
some from out of town and the re-
citizens of Bluefield, were
having their blood tested in prepar-
alton for giving it to Mr.. Taylor,
the doctors brought word of his
death.
In the meantime officers of Gre
scent Temple shrine, of which Mr..
Taylor was member, had tele-
graphed that Mrs. Taylor was on her
way to her husbands side and to
take good care of her. She was
almost twenty-four hours too late to
see him alive, but during her jour-
ney she met two young women from
Bluefield, who, upon learning of her
errand, gave her every assistance.
They were met at the station by
theh doctor who had treated Mr..
Taylor and during her stay the
grief stricken wife was tenderly car
ed for by the young women, Mrs.
Ayres, the hotel managers wife,
and Rev. Frank Y. Jackson, who re-
NAMED with her almost constant
ly until, with her brother, she left
for home with the body.
Mrs. Taylor declares the volun-
tary offer of blood for her husband
and the treatment accorded her
during her afflieion were two of the
most beautiful examples of kindness
she ever witnessed and did much to
make the trying days bearable.
