The deathly membrane kept forming and the rattle in the throat showed plainly that something must be done quickly or death by suff ocation must ensue.

A thread was fastened on each side of tho inci sion and it was held open in that way so the poor fellow could breathe until a man went to town and eot a tube which was inserted. At last accounts the boy was getting aloDg nioely and h's recover v was exnectpd. Death of Walter Jenkins.
