He went as far as Florida, where he contracted typhoid fever. He was finally sent home on sick leave. After a long illness he partially recovered, but he carried the marks and effects of the disease throughout life, including partial loss of hearing. Victor located and practiced law, at Ord, Nebraska, then seeking a climate that might be beneficial to the health of his wife, they moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma. He was a prominent and succesful practitioner at law here for some years, but failing to find the healthful environment they were seeking they moved to Shoshone, Idaho, in 1909. Here he entered into a partnership as the senior partner of the law firm of Victor 0.
