condition is thought to be critical.
Mr.. NOrthrup has been suffering since
early in the year. He insisted on at
tending the annual session of the Will
mington Conference in Dover, but be-
came so ill that he could not return
to his home until some days after the
adjournment of the conference. He
was later taken to the Homeopathic
Hospital, and as he failed to improve,
gangrene having developed, one toe
was amputated and shortly after an
other toe was taken off. He was tax
en- to Ocean City, Md, where it was
thought he might be benefited by the
sea air, and where he might be under
the care of his brother-in-law, DR..
Townsend, but his condition became
so grave on last Tuesday that a spec
ialist from Johns Hopkins Hospital
was called in. He was removed to the
hospital on Friday, accompanied by
Mrs. Van Northrup, her brother, DR..
Townsend, and the Rev. E. c. Sun
field. Following an examination there
Mrs. Northrup was called in by the
physicians and notified that her hus-
bands condition is very critical.
