estion and dyspep-is. His story of how he went from one physician to another in search of a care that his wife and little ones might not come to want is very pathetic and toneking, Finally s basama too ill to keep his situation and bad to give it up. This was a pad calamity. He was appalled to think how he should be able to live. But God raised up friends who helped to keep the wolf from the door.
