: Or. Furman J.. shadd; one of the
leading physicians in the land, for 81
years connected with the medical oe-
partment Of Howard University, died
last Wednesday morning, as the re-
suit. of "a nervous breakdown. His
illness covered a period OF nearly two
years, and trips to Bermuda and
many health resorts proved unavail-
ing In his effort to find a .revitalizing
force yrhe high standing of the
Howard Medical Schoot as directly
traceable to his capable and energet-
.1c management, and hundreds of
poor boys whom he has: assisted to
graduate, owe their SUCCESS in their
profession to> the generous policy
pursued by DR.. shadd in permitting
them to go out depending on their
honor to pay the school the balance
due on their tuition. The race is all
too poor In uplifting agencies like
DR.. Shadd, and he will be- missed.
