I had no ill-luck myself, but none of my cousins escaped.

There were eight of them, and at one time and another they broke fourteen arms among them.
But it cost next to nothing, for the doctor worked by the year--$25 for the whole family.

I remember two of the Florida doctors, Chowning and Meredith.

They not only tended an entire family for $25 a year, but furnished the medicines themselves.

Good measure, too.
