At the age of 90 George W Goff, who lives near Punta Gorda, Fla., has grown young again. Up to a year ago Mr. Goff was blind, partially deaf and bald and had been so for many years. About that time, how ever, he suddenly recovered his eye xight and hearing, and his hair be gan to grow. Now Mr., Goff hears and sees as well as he ever did, and his head is covered with a growth of black hair. As his eyesight strength ened and his hair grew amar'ed change occurred in Mr. Goff's physi cal condition, and from being a de crepit man, hardly able to walk, he became as strong and active as a youth of 20 years. The wrinkles on his skin disappeared, and he now looks fresh and youthful. The case has puzzled the physioians. They say the man is entirely reju venated and may live 00 years longer l'hey assert that the old tissues have been replaced by new, and that phys ically Mr. Goff is not 'more than 20 years old. So youthful did Mr. Goff feel that last week he married a hand some young girl. To look at the couple one would uaver suspect that there was any difference in their ages, although the groom is 70 years older than his bride. Mr. Goff was born in Georgia in 1805 He fought in the Indian ar under Andrew Jackson and remembers Old Hickory well. He also was in the Mexican and civil wars and was wounded at the battle of Benna Vista. A sad aooidsnt occurred at Smith field, Davie county.
