Mr. John Marley of Macksburg, is lying in a critical condition. He got a slight scratch on some barbed wire, about two months ago, and his blood, no doubt being in bad condition at the time, became poisoned. His brother R. Marley received a dispatch and on Tuesday morning started for Macksburg with but little hopes of getting there before the death of his brother.
