Lo.r-ne W. Brown, of Hollis, New York City, is recuperating at present in the Fifth Avenue Hospital New York City from an operation 'which involved the loss of his right foot. For about .two and( a half years a ‘condition’ known as “An­ gioma SarcOma,” 'has been develop­ ing in the right foot and gradually getting worse. Curiously enough, though it came in the right foot it had n'o connection with 'the paralysis in that leg. It might have been in’ the other- foot or in an arm. The condition- was not a -bone’infection, nor a malignant growth, 'but just the gradual enlargement of .the blood vessel structure. For some months a number of leading specialists of America, and one from Vienna, have been interested in the case. Con­ servative treatment was tried for six months, but the condition in the foot steadily increased. Oil October Sth the condition suddenly became worse, and the doctors after further consultations and further X-ray pic­ tures all agreed that the operation should be performed to safeguard Iris general health. It was generally agreed -that without the operation he would be an invalid, but that With the use of an drtifica.1 foot he would be much better than ever. Mr. Brown is doing very well. Everything is coming along very well indeed and he 'is l'ooking for­ ward to going home in a few days, and to walking again in four or five weeks. The doctors dll enthusias­ tically assure him that in A very short time he will be much better than for many months, that he will be able to carry on his Work bettor; that he will wdl'k: Sttaighter and with loss limp than before. He Is eagerly looking forward to getting back to his work again; Kahn-GoiVeit A quiet -Wedding was solemnized ifi the Anglican church Rectory, in Ailsa Craig with Rev.
