"FORMER PRESIDENT RESTING EASILY"

WOODROW WILSON'S CONDITION "IMPROVING"

Washington, D.C. (JFK+50) In the evening of March 26, 1921, former President Woodrow Wilson "was much improved" following the attack of "nervous indigestion"* he suffered the previous day.

Mr. Wilson's attack, reported the New York Herald, caused "uneasiness" in the Nation's Capital concerning his condition.

The former POTUS was visited at his home on S Street here in the District by Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson, former White House physician.  The doctor found Mr. Wilson "resting easily."

*Nervous stomach is one example of how a person's emotions can affect their body.  Symptoms include nausea or bloating unrelated to gastrointestinal condition.
