Rev. L. D. Bass in Hospital.

Suffering from rare disease. which
at times depriveS him OF his personality
and consciousness, the result of an ip-
jury to his head when he was a young
man, Rev Dr.. L. D. Bass, a prominent
Baptist clergyman Of Mexia, Texas, is
at the university hospital to undergo
an operation.
The disease from which DR.. Bass is
suffering has only become apparent in
the past few years, and each day it has
been growing more serious. 1t is saio
by physicians at the hospital to be tn,
direct result of an injury 10 the hea'
that DR.. Bass received in 1882 when b.
was pastor of church in Timmons'

more signs of DR.. Bass again losing
