Dr. Keith Dead.
Dr. Melville C. Keith died at his home in Bellville, Ohio, Friday, Dec. 18th, so says a letter from his wife received last Sunday morning by A. H. Caward. When Dr. Keith left here last fall he was a very sick man and at no time after his arrival home was he able to sit up more than a couple of hours a day. His death was caused by blood poison and overwork incurred in a case he had at Independence. The news will be a shock to his many friends and patrons in this vicinity. We are of the opinion that his wife, who is also a physician and extra well qualified to take up his work, will continue the practice and fill all orders for medicines wanted.
