TAKES SWIM IN HIS SLEEP English, Indiana-Deserting his bed for two hours or more, at least twice a week, and then denying that he had been absent at all, caused Mrs. Gabriel Jackson to become suspicious of her husband and led her to have her brothers "keep an eye upon him." Recently Gabriel slipped out as usual and was followed watchfully by his brothers-in-law while he traveled more than a mile to the old "swimming hole" upon his father's farm where he divested himself of his clothing and swam to and fro across the pond three or four times. When he emerged, he carefully redressed and then returned home and to bed. The next morning he knew nothing of the occurrence till told of it and could not believe it till brought to the scene and shown the footprints in the sand. The queer part of it is that Jackson is not known to be a somnambulist, though he had been thus afflicted in childhood. ____________________________________________________________________________ ________
