Although possessing a wonderful constitution and having taken fine care of himself, Capt. Coward says that he ha? not escaped a number of illnesses. A year ago, he was con fined to his bed for three months with pneumonia, and he says that he didn’t think he woulld ever get up, but says that once .when he was working"for the -abroad that he had measles and surely thought he would die. He also had typhoid fever at that time. H e still retains his teeth, only having had one or two pulled. When asked to what he attributed hi? remarkable age, Capt. Coward says that he has never deceived any one, and that he has always tried to treat his fellow-man right. “And I never was much to frolic,” he added. Congratulated on his birthday and told that it was hoped he w‘culd have many more, he repli ed that he does not greatly desire much longer life. “I liv$ in th e past,” the venerable old man said simply.
