Yhen informed, he sald: "What line j ]

In splte of thelr natural reluctance j <

ultlng physiclans could not see thelr
vay to hold out a ray of hope. How
vc-r, they helped to lessen the pain of

It is stated that Tolstol expressed a
wish to be buried on the hill at Yas?

child, but that the funeral should be
a slmple one, without coremonial or
flowers. Tho family, however, has
agreed not to Interfere wlth any hon?

He does not ropresent the people, tho
