AVe are well acquainted with a gentle- , man residing in Hempsteud , who was sub- ject to severe and frequent attacks of rheumatism . He was persuaded to carry- it potato , and did 50. The potato , a good- sized one at first , graduall y shrunk , with- out decay ing, until at last it became quite small und as hard as a stono , presenting all the appearance of being petrified.
