Grant stayed as close as he could while his cap- tain lay in a coma for months from » terrific head injury, Slowly Lass- man recovered. Last Saturday a final desperate brain-operation was per- formed to restore the functions of his lett arm. But Friday, Grant was stricken with appendicitis and hur- riedly operated upon in another hos- pital. “Fish” was recovering nicely until he heard of Lassman’s operation. ‘Yesterday he dropped into troubled sleep and awoke with a temperature of 104. “I've had a terrible experience,” he told tha nurse as he tossed on his cot. *‘Lass’ is dead. I just saw him die. They couldn’t save him.'It was awful.” Doctors fought with the fever but Grant was very ill and rapidly get-| | ting worse. Yet just at that time Dr. Frederick Tilney, in charge of Lass- man's case, calleld the Amsociated Press to say that something of a medical miracle had happened to his plllen “We are hold(n[ our breaths,” Dr. Tilney said, “but the symptoms have disappeared from Lamsman’s arm.

He couldn’t be convinced his dream wasn't true. A personal visit, almost an hour's persuasion, and the taut, frightened look left Grant's: face. “T'guess I was wrong,” he said and relaxed tired out. He fell asleep and the temperature dropped. Both patients now are doing nicely.
