- The Athens Messenger, Athens Ohio
23 August 1877
Mr. Warren Seney, son of Joshua Seney, Esq., a young gentlemen well
known in the city and county, is now lying at the residence of his parents
in Springfield Township, with one of the most terrible diseases that flesh
is heir to. It is what is known to the profession as Tabes Dorsalis, or
atrophy of the spinal cord, as disease which occasions intense suffering,
on with which victim may exist for years, but which death alone can
relieve. It is, in fact, a living death, and Mr. Seney, like others who have
been affected in this manner, has time and again prayed for the coming
of the grim monster. It is now nearl five years since the symptoms of
the disease made themselves apparent, and his decline has been gradual
but sure until, since May, he has been confined to his bed.
