but I supposed the rest of the family were in usual health. How is cousin Lewis and does he continue to have those attacks? Dr N.A. Hammond of 43 West 57th St. New York city is quite celebrated for his treatment of such diseases and is I understand considered the most successful practitioner for such diseases in this country. What does cousin Mary think of him? We have a young man here 22 years old who was taken with epilepsy two years since having attacks frequently. He went to see Dr Hammond He performed some surgical operation at the base of the brain, and gave him a preparation of potassa I believe which he is to use for a year. He has now been over six months without an attack and I have heard of Dr Hammonds success in serious cases though I suppose cases in middle aged or old persons are the most difficult

P.S. Clark and wife I am sure would desire I send messages of love and sympathy if they knew that I was writing. I have not heard from the California relatives in sometime. Please direct to 289 West Monroe St Chicago Ill
