Individual Note:
     William, the fifth child, was affected with disease of the spine, but enjoyed as
good general health as many other children in a similar condition. One day,
looking up to his father with a thoughtful air, the boy asked him where he was
to be on the following day. The father replied that he did not know. "Well,"
little William said, "tomorrow at eight minutes after twelve I am going to
die." The following morning he made his will as to the disposal of his
playthings, and at the time mentioned he died, having been apparently in the
usual health up to the very minute when his pure spirit took its flight.
