After he left his bed, his sickness
was caused by leaving
off about one half of his
clothing and dressing up and
going to the city on a Saturday
night with Robison. He took
a dreadfull cold, which
almost resulted in pneumonia.
Dr. H. told him he too would
get sick if he had done
as he done on that Saturday
night. His last pay was a small
amount on account of his
sickness and last Saturday
and Sunday night, he tried
the same experiment over again
but, with better results.
His sickness was driving the first
week of the extreme cold weather.
When he was needed so bad
on the road, they came after him.
I waded to my knees in
snow to the Street Car Barnes
at five o'clock in the morning
to tell them that he was sick.
