Summary
Florence Nightingale, the old soldier and the Black Twist.
An old soldier in Diabaig was attended to by Florence Nightingale in Scutari. She said that smoking Black Twist would protect him from cholera, etc. He brought this news home, so the contributor's grandmother used to tell him to be sure to use Black Twist when he started smoking.
