fairs with Mr. when he came
to the Salvation Army, November
18. His home had been broken
up years ago in a near-by coanty
County and he had taken to wan
dering from place to place where
frer it seemed possible to find
work.
Owing to this wandering from
place to place he was unable to
secure any assistance from the
county. In his weakened condition
he applied to Captain Williams
and asked him if the Salvation
Jinny could do anything for an
old man such as he. After going
into his story the captain took
tjlni the same day to a local hos
pital. ,f After spending eleven days
