Instances of Suspended Animation,
Including Case of a Washing|
tonian.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Dr. E. P. Vollum, U. S. A., was, when
a lad of 16 years, "drowned" in Long
Island Sound on-e morning about 10
tt:~ -n-oo t->1 a . in a
U CIOCH.. XT.J.& UUUJ? v> clj yiuv^u ...
wagon and hauled three miles to his
home and prepared for burial. At daylight
next morning one of the watchers
discovered signs of life, Vollum, after
graduating at the medicaal college
passed the army examination and bercame
a doctor.in the army.
At the battle of Gettysburg a bullet
passed through the head of Gen. Paul
tearing out both eyes. Three days latv
er his body was removed from the
field into a house. Dr. Vollum, having
had a narrow escape from premature
burial, had adopt-ed the opinion "that
there is no certainty of death until
the body clearly shows decay," refused
to have him buried. Several
days later the general showed signs
of life, and in time recovered his
health and strength and, although
blind, lived fourteen years in Wash
ington, D. C.
v In the afternoon of the battle of
Chickamauga an Ohio soldier on
Snodgrass Hill was shot through the
"body. He was carried to the regimental
surgeon and pronounced dead. The
writer had the pleasure of going over
that field in 1893 with this soldier
and his handsome young daughter. He
was then a member of the Ohio State
legislature, and was a robust, healthy
* man.
It seems that the third day after he
was shot he became sufficiently conscious
to attract the attention of a
l ' sergeant of a Virgiana regiment, who
? poured some water on his wound and
a Tl-i q novfr
I gave him some to uima.
I day the Confederates carried him to
[ the doctors at Snodgrass House.
After Dr. Vollum was transferred to
the retired list he went abroad, and
there met a wealthy Englishman, who
paid the expenses of publishing the
"book Yollum wjote some years later
on premature burials.
> Vollum states that two undertakers
in England told the Englishman and
himself "that if what they personally
knew was published it would horrify
the world." He stated that if a person\
died in Germany the law required that
it be at once reported to the nearest
physician of the government, who at
once takes possession of the body
moves it to a mortuary, placing it in
a comfortable bed, where it is under
- constant observation until decay is

cemeteries, and the attendants live in
them. It is said that the last mortuary
built in Munich cost several
hundred thousand dollars.
Germany is not a wealthy nation,
tion necessary. Their doctors say the
% spend thousands of dollars every year
I to prevent any one being buried alive
shows that they consider the precau.1
Ml tion necessary. Their doctrs say the
shock to the solar plexus caused by(
W a gunshot wound, a fall, a blow from
a fist or club, or a tired and hungry
I person drinking a quantity of ice cold
i water or beer may cause apparent
f death that may last for days until the
system recovers from the shock and
^ revives, and the person lives. The
mnv aisn occur from weakness
oauiv WW
caused by illness, especially during
epidemics.
They seem to think that American
customs are rather brutal. To bury
within two or three days does not
eive the body time to recover and al
lowing all our undertakers at once
to inject 10 cents worth of embalming
fluid into the foody kills all chance
of its ever reviving. It would look
as if Americans were anxious to get
rid of their parents and grandparents,
4 for. of course, middle aged and old
people are much more liable than
young people to a state of suspended
animation.
The Park Idea Gaining.
News and Courier.
Five citizens of Florence, South
Carolina, have donated to that community
? tract of land to be used as a
public park. In New York city the
plans of a railroad to run its tracks
through land now used as a park have
' aroused the most intense opposition.
Florence is a small city, though a progressive
on?. New York is the greatest
city we have. In both of them the
question of parks seems to be of con
siderable importance just now.
This fact is interesting. It is a sign
/ of the times?a manifestation of that
?
spirit which is at work, in little citi-?s
as well as big ones, more actively than
ever before to make life in the cities
more pleasant and mro- healthful. It
is a sign, moreover, of real advancement.
Cities, while they are in the
raw state, do not bother themselves
very much about things lik~ parks.

Such considerations seem then of mi- t
nor importance. The j is no time to t
devote to anything whvh is not direct- 1
ly concerned with business. The tract 1
of land which should be reserved for s
a park for the people is cut up and 1
sold for building lots. 1
The time is coming wlien every pro- c
gressive city will realize the impor- i
tance of doing a big business?when (
it will Realize that the more beautiful ]
it is the more rapid and genuine will
be its growth. The development of
the park idea, in small communities (
as well as in large1 ones, is a thing
which tends to make life more pro- ^
fitable in dollars and cents as well as ^
more pleasant and more healthful. ,

years ago.
At the commencement exercises of
public school No. 12, just concluded
the engagement of its principal, Mrs,
Elizabeth Sanborn Knapp, to the
Rev. Dr. Holley is announced. Mrs.
Knapp, a widow, and now a grandmother,
is retiring on a pension after
more than a quarter of a century at
work in the school room. She and
Mr. Kolley were sweethearts together

ago, wnen a iuisuuuciaiauuiu6 iuvw
rupted their plans to get married.
The marriage of the couple will be
celebrated soon at the Cathedral of
St. John the Divine, in New York.
I Commenting on the above the Charleston
Post says:
"Dr. Holley was for a number of
years rector of Christ church at
Greenville, and is well known
throughout the diocese of South Carolina.
He left this State about 15
years ago to go into other fields and
has held the rectorship of several important
parishes. Dr. Hollev, besides
being prominent in the church, was
very active in Masonic circl-es and
was senior grand warden of the Grand
Lodge of South Carolina. At the time
jhe was called from this diocese."
