TALKED AFTER DEATH.

Mr. J. T. Harvey, a young farmer in
Nottoway county, Va., was prorounced
dead by his physician a few days ago,
but in ashoit time he began talking,
keeping it up for tive hours without dis-
playing unother sign of life, with the
single exception of a slight movement of
the throat and opening his eyes. T He
died then, surrounded by his distressed

relatives.

~The story, as it reaches Richmond
through a reliable source, is that the
young man had been suffering from the
grip. The seriousness of his case was
not realized, and his condition had be-
come critical before a physician was.
summoned. ~To all appearances he
passed away at about 5 oTclock in the
morning.

For some reason the attending physi-
cian remained after the body had been
laid out. While in the room alone his
attention was attracted by a whistling
noise, Which he discuvered was caused
by air or gas exhaled by Harvey. He
placed his hand on HarveyTs head, and
the latter began talking, but not in an
intelligent Manner, all that he said being
confined to sentences of two or three
words repeated in succession for many
minates at a time, such as, oDie young.�
~Die young.� oDie young.� He finally
stopped suddenly five hours later, with
a remark indicating that he recognized
that dissolution was near at hand.

The physician made a caretul exami-

-nation for some other indications of life
white Harvey was talking, but only de-
tected a very slight movement at the |
rear of the jawbone. Not the slightest
movement of the heart, pulse or tongue
was apparent, and the throb of the jug-
ular vein was totally absent. The body
was pertectly rigid and cold.

Partial decomposition had set in sev-
eral days before HarveyTs death.

The case is said to be as mucha
mystery to the physician as to every
one else.

Mr. Harvey was about twenty-two
years of age, and lived with his parents
near Noitoway Courthouse." Richmond
