system was full of uric acid and her vitality weakened.
For several weeks, previous to the birth, we did all
possible to eliminate the poison and apparently were quite
successful. Her delivery was short and the easiest one
she has had. I feel sure, had the baby lived and been
able to nurse, she would have improved very fast and be
well now. The baby could not nurse for some reason
unknown to us. Was so hungry, but could not stand
any nourishment and, undoubtedly, starved. There was
no apparent reason for this. The little life came and went
so quickly. I decided not to push any investigation. In
fact, have no cause to believe even the hospital people
or the doctor really know. Mrs. Stone is so discouraged.
Breaks into tears at the slightest cause. We aim to keep
up her spirits and later take her to Mudlavia near
Attica, Ind. and possibly eliminate entirely the poison
with the mud baths which have much virtue in such
cases, I am told. I am in hopes you are well and can
find time to write Mrs. Stone a letter to cheer her up.
She needs this so much. Mary and the children
are well. Best regards to you.
Yours,
Walter C. Stone
