Severe Operation.

Lloyd Johnston, son of Mr. and Mrs
}. A. Johnston, who was taken to Buf.
falo, last week to have an operation on
the leg injured last winter, is doing
nicely In letter from his father he
says:
Lloyd underwent an operation Fri
day noon, at the Buffalo General
Hospital, by DR.. Park. A large piece
OF bone, which had become separated
above the knee and slipped down so
that it interfered with the motion of
the knee, and which began to decom-
pose, was removed and the wound
sewed up. The doctors here said that
II 1t had gone much longer he would
have lost his leg, as it was in very bad
condition. There were fourteen sur-
geons present at the operation and
Dr. Park announced to them that If
was rare case. He told me TODAY
that Lloyd would now have
very good use of his leg but we could
not expect him to recover fully as it
would be little short. OF course
we are exceedingly thankful that he
did not lose it,"

residence, Eldred, Pa, after an i'll
ness of less than one hour. The writer
was called to the 'phone Immediately

duties; was joyful and apparently in
the best of health. However, while in

complained of a smothering sensation,

the hour for all good people came to
