“We Are Very Happy,” Says Mrs. McKinley
Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 9.—“We trust in God, and
believe Mr. McKinley is going to recover speedily. I know that he has the best
medical attendance that can be obtained, and I am perfectly satisfied that these
doctors are handling the case splendidly. It is a great pleasure to know the
deep interest and sympathy felt by the American people. The case is progressing
so favorably that we are very happy.”
Mrs. McKinley, the wife of the President, said
this to-day at the Milburn house just after the 4 o’clock bulletin of the physicians
was issued. This bulletin was the strongest and most favorable that has been
put forward by the physicians since the President was shot on Friday afternoon.
The seventy-two hours which were the limit they had fixed for the development
of peritonitis had almost expired, and their confidence has wonderfully encouraged
the sweet-faced wife of the President.
