ALBANY, N. Y , Sept. 10 (UP)
(UP)—After a lifetime of misfor-
tune, the "Sunshine of St. Peter's
Hospital” has passed away.
William D. Craig, 49, earned his
nickname because of the cheerful
manner by which he accepted his
virtually continuous periods of
hospitalization.
When 12 years old, he was struck
by a train. He suffered an injured ,
hip and lay six' days unconscious
in a hospital. Several months later
he was released.
In January, 1922, blood poison-
ing developed in his left f<»ot. Nine
months later the foot was ampu-
-------—- -
Time after time, infection oc-
curred. Each time he underwent an
operation. Eventually, both arms
and both legs had been amputated.
Prior to loss of his arms, Craig
found solace in reading.
“If I couldn't read,” he said,
"then I'd be in a<flx. As it is, I can
amuse myself all day long with
reading material. As long as I
have something to read and some-
thing to smoke I can't complain."
Later, he was confined four
years in Ann Lee Hospital. Unable
to read, he found amusement by >
watching airplanes come and go I
at a nearby airport.
"There's nothing remarkable
about my being cheerful," he
would tel! doctors and nurses. “I
could be a lot worse off. It isn’t as
though I had a wife and children
to take care of. Think of the mis-
ery I'd have brought some poor
woman if I’d been married."
He usually answered sympath-
izers by saying: "There arc plenty
of people worse off than me."
A short time ago he re-entered
St. Peter's Hospital, where he tiled
from lack of ciood circulation.
