Walked 16 Miles For Life.
Raced and walked on a skating rink
floor in Hloomington, Ind., for six
teen hours ami beaten with rough wet
towels and rubbed with salt until his
flesh was raw, Thomas Edson went
through a harrowing experience to es
cape death from morphine.
Edson had taken ten grains, and
then, full of lepentance, hunted a doc
tor. To keep him from going into a
fatal sleep the doctor summoned to
his aid a score of university medical
students.
In relays they started a sixteen-honr
Marathon. Edson was stripped to the
waist. His legs were laid bare by cut
ting his trousers off at the knees.
With students at each elbow, he was
walked and trotted by the hour. A
third student followed, beating him
over the back and legs with a rough
wet towel. When the flesh became, raw
1 salt was applied.
Five hundred persons witnessed the
1 performance, among them Edson's
wife, trouble with whom is said to
: have caused him to attempt his lifo.
Several times he came near going to
'• sleep in spite of the heroic treatment.
