Seeking Sight (1882)

Jimmie CAHOON, from Goose Creek Island, Pamlico county, was in the city yesterday, on his way to see some oculist concerning his eyes.  When about six years old he had an attack of fever, and on recovering lost his eyesight. He wishes now to get some celebrated oculist in New York or Philadelphia to perform an operation, and see if sight cannot be restored.  Dr. KENNEDY, of Pamlico, advised him properly about the best plan to pursue.  Good counsel, for Dr. LEWIS, though a  young man, has justly gained a high standing in his profession as an expert oculist.
