SUDDEN DEATH AT A PRAYER MEETING
On Wednesday evening last, about o'clock,
during prayer meeting AZ the Presbyterian
church, ~ Salisbury, Somerset county, Md,
DIR. Cathell Humphreys fell dead while On
gagged in worship. The New Era says: IL ap-
pears that the deceased had just finished an
extemporaneous lecture and was in the CT of
praying when he was seen 70 fall forward,
and his face coming in contact with q bench,
was severely bruised, whereupon assistance
be ng immediately offered, life as found sx-
tinct. The deceased was in apparently good
health at the time, though subject 10 disease
ofthe heart, which il is supposed was the cause
Of his death. DIR. Humphreys was in earlier
life an active democratic politician, and FORM
erly a mem Der of the State Legislature, but of
late years has been physically unsuited 10 such
labors. though he followed his profession un-
til death, bearing in this community an envi-
able skill. He was about 20 years of age, and
leaves some warm friends, beyond his imme-
date family TO mourn his sudden demise.
