Frequently he relieved the tedium

WAStíCOTOX, Feb, 4. (AP),—Wil-
li" m Howard Taft returned to
Washlagtór\ today shattered In
•health and practically helpless.
Perceptibly ,■ worn, weak and lrt-
diffofent to hi surroundings, * the
former president, who resigned as
chief Justice of the TTnItedvStates,
came Mack 'to the cnpltal . from
Asheville, N. C., was assisted from
his car,, placed in an automobile
and driven to his Wyoming aVenue
home.
"A sick mnn," was the short de-
scription of Mr, Tafts physician,
Ur. Fi-incis Hagner, who accom-
panied him on his Journey from
North Carolina. But he added that
"as far as we can tell he is In no
immediate danger."
Ill as he was. the former chief
Jstice was dressed when his tr'rtln
rcached the union station here at
7:05 a. m., I«it he remained ln^ his
drawing r^om while his car was be-
ing transferred to a level nearer
.'the streets. Dr. Hagner time and
ngaln entered his utateroom to
apeak to the dlbtinguiahWf patient,
but he seemed to have difficulty In
impressing upon Mr. Tnfl that the
time had come to leave the car.
Oentiy, the doctor asked Mr. Taft
to get to his feet, but It wa.A neces-
sary for several others to assist
him,; Step...Ivy ;ft«to. Dr.'Hagner and
hl aldea 'guided ' his footstep as
the sick mán léft'the train.
In the narrow passage between
his stateroom and the side of the
sleeping car, the former president
grasped the hand-rails to steady
himself, although he literally (was
being carried along., A trained
nurse, who has been with Mr. Taft
throughout his illness was nearby.
Several times the former chief
Justice reached out with weakened
hands to take hold of the nearby
supports above the steps 'of the car.
Finally Dr. Hagner, who was stand-
ing On the train platform with Mr*.
Taft, grasped the two hands of hts
patient and thus guided -him " into
a wheel c-halr which h®d beeh roll-
ed up to him.
