Or. SHANAFELT LOSES
SIGHT AND MEMORY

Sioux Falls. x. D., April 23.-Informa-
ton which a just been received here
as TO the failing physical and mental
condition OF Rev. DIR. II. NJ. Shanafelt,
formerly of Huron, who for a period OF
Is years was superintendent of Baptist
missions In South Dakota, will be re-
ceived with sincere sorrow by his thou
sands OF friends and acquaintance in
the tate. Failing health compelled
him 10 resign his position In 1907. when
he left South Dakota and went TO Biz
mingham, Mich, to spend his remain
Ing years.
A letter just received from Birming-
han by a member of the family OF Col
Dnel +. T. Cressey, a well known
citizen OF Sioux Falls, will cause a
feeling OF sadness among those who
knew DIR. Shanafelt during his effective
work In behalf of the church In South
Dakota. The letter says:
II am sorry 10 tell you that Mr..
Shanafelt is failing steadily. 1t is be-
coming more and more difficult for him
to get around, though he still gets to
Sunday morning service, and TO the
p~ostoffice each day. Within a month
his sight has failed so he does not see
anything clearly: cannot see to read or
write, or even tell the time on his
watch. His mind is w~eakening-at
least his memory. He is very patient
and submissive; does 10 suffer except
from pain in the head, which is not con-
tinuous. 1t is pitiable to see his con
dition after so many years OF strength
anG faithful hard work"
