E. W. McMASTER
IS SERIOUSLY i'll
in HOSPITAL
Highly Esteemed Citizen Near.
ing His Eighty-Seventh
Birth Anniversary

This community has been deeply
concerned over the rather serious ill
ness of the Hon. E. w. McMaster, one
of Pocomoke's oldest and most highly
esteemed citizens.
Mr.. McMaster was taken to the Sal
isbury hospital last Saturday, suffer-
ing from an attack of appendicitis.
He was Immediately operated upon,
and encouraged his host of friends
here by the splendid way he held up
under the knife. Very little tempera-
ture dveloped, and most encouraging
reports came from his physicians.
On Wednesday afternoon, it was
found necessary to subject him to a
second operation; this time for an all
ment, Hernia, from which he had been
suffering for some time. Remark
able as it may seem, his condition
after the second ordeal did not show
any alarming symptoms, and, at this
writing, the report is that he is still
bearing up well.
Mr.. McMaster is nearing his eighty
seventh year, and his sturdy consti-
tuition is standing him in good stead
in these trying ordeals. His life, in
all respects, has been a most temper
ate one, and he has, tho" advanced in
age, considerable power still left to
fight the inroads of disease.
Everyone is hoping for the best in
his case, and trust he may soon re-
turn home, improved by his surgical
experience.

ed as of major Importance not only

sum will be expended during the fis-
cal year for maintaining the twenty
seven foot channel through the nine
teen miles in the canal proper, and the
twenty-seven miles of approach chan
mel in Chesapeake Bay and Elk River,
which will require dredging to main
tain the new deep-draft channel until
the banks become stabilized.
