, . .
Some weeks smce his great toe on his
right foot gave him considerable pain
and commenced to turn black. A phy-=
sleian was summoned and preserilied?
for it, when Ketchum insisted on how
mg the member amputated. The doc-
tor refused to do it, and after his de-
parture Ketchum cut the toe Ofl' mth“a
knife. The foot grew rapidly weigh
. for lack of proper treatment and finall-
ly he went to the New Haven hospital.
He returned a short time since and? is
now domiciled at his old home caring
for himself as best he can. The neigh-
. bors would do all in'their power to if M
hevc his sufferings, but he will perinlt
of none of it, indeed he resents oily
overtures from them in that direction?
The party who gave your reporter . thd
above facts says the old man is very
cranky. He saw the foot yesterday ..;_
and says it'is in a terrible condition, 3
half bandaged, mortifying and the flies
revelingiOn it. He-‘thinks that it. will
marked that he did not care how soon
it did. It is, we believe ,a case that
ought to receive attention from some
one. , » . ._
