AN OLD ACQUAINTANCE
I have found an old acquaintance here—Rev. Franklin S. Rising, of the Episcopal
ministry, who has had charge of a church in Virginia, Nevada, for several years,
and who is well known in Sacramento and San Francisco. He sprained his knee in
September last, and is here for his health. He thinks he has made no progress worth
mentioning towards regaining it, but I think differently. He can ride on horseback, and is
able to walk a few steps without his crutches—things he could not do a week ago.
