One Year $1.60 Six Months 00 Three Months — JM) (Payable in Advance.) THURSDAY, JUNE 1ST. 1922 A LETTER ABOUT MR. BRYANT Mr. Editor: The following letter reached me last week too late for publication and will ask that you kindly give it space this week in as much as it gives the friends of Mr. Bryant a great deal of information as to his condition at this time. Since r*ceiving this let ter I understand that two X-rays have been made of the gall bladder and am expecting report on same this week. The amount of th»s last bill $86.00 has been paid, which leaves me with only a few dollars in bank with which to meet this week’s bills. May 21, 1922. Mrs. G. M. Greene, Barnwell, S. C. Dear Mrs. Green: I see by the dates of former letters that I have been neglecting you. We have been under very heavy pressure. Have had a pretty strong, hard fight with Mr. Bryant On account of the pain which he suffered, which we finally determinad resulted from gall bladder conditions, we had to turn our attention from the cancer prob lem to try to give him relief. I am able, now to report very favorably, however, with reference to the can cer. I am satisfied that we are out of the woods, so to speak, so far as that is concerned. We could not hope for, or export, a more satisfactory condition at present regarding it The gall bladder was the seat of old la feet Ions—streptococcus, colon ba cillus. snd t> photd. the latter pro- doaslasting The tadiratient are that as a rseuit sf the**- aid lafsrttoa*. there have bars sum* deposits in the gall bladder, la other wseds. gall This gall bladder conditim surrounding inflammations, I to have been the original cause of the paia and disability whkfc took him ta the hospital. At any rate. It is a complicated matter entirely aside fmm the presence of cancer. The cancer, we found, had extend ed beyond the liver and mf ft rated a portion of the right iung This, as stated abov*. wa now consider m a safe snd satisfactory condition, a re treatments only being iry to make the cure certain. 1 believe w» have succeeded in eradicating all the infections from the gall bladder, and this has result ed in much improvement in the gen eral condition. The pnin, however, persists, but it is difficult to say to what extent his apparent suffering is due to the fact of hit endurance toward pain having been destroyed by the long continued use of mor phine. We have not been able to dis pense with the morphine as yet. Mr. Bryant's app«arance is much improved snd he stated yesterday that he could "maul rails” or do any thing if it were not for the pain. This statement indicates how changed his renersl condition is. There should be an X-Ray study of the gall bladder made, and it is prob able that surgery be called for for the removal of the stones. I know that, already, the expense in the case has amounted to quite a sum. We have been giving a great deal of ex tra treatment and attention to the case, and feel that we have made con siderable sacrifice in the matter. However, we want to go. on and are willing to carry our end of the load until there is no longer need of treat ment, when, I believe, Mr. Bryant will become a useful man and a great blessing to his family. I feel sure your efforts and the contributions of the good people there, will not have been in vain. You see I have written you quite frpnkly, believing that you doubt less have a full knowledge of the case, and in full confidence that your good judgment will lead you to make just the right use of the information given. Today, I must pay Mrs. Saltz an other $26.00 for Mr. Bryant's care. She felt that she bad to raise her for mer price, as she had to be up with him frequently at night, and at times be has been a good deal of care to her, as well as making it unpleasant for others whom she might Jiafgin her house. Besides that $26.00, Mr. Bryant’s bill at ordinary charges since yon Inal sent remittance, amount■ to $161 JO. n total of $17660. This a- professions 1 service for myself, or for medicines I have furnished him. I am going to aak you to seiyd $60.00 plus amount now duo Mrs. Salts—a total of $86.00, for which we will cancel all indebtedness up to and in cluding May 20th. I shall write you again in a few days, after we have made the next examination. Very sincerely yours, 0. M. Hayward. P. S. I have just looked over your let ter of May 3rd again. I cannot say yet, just how long Mr. Bryant will re quire treatment. It depends upon the gall bladder work. It will not take more than 10 days or two weeks to wind up the other treatments guess he has written you about the sweater. He has certainly enjoyed it and has needed it too, as the weather has been cool at times. I want to as sure you that we have a raos't hope ful and confident attitude wltlf re ference to Mr. Bryant’s case. 0. M. H. Honor Roll: G. M. Greene, $6.00; Vickery Bros., $2.00; G. M. Sheppard, G.
