PERMANENT DOCTOR DEAD.
George W. Hudspeth, of Little
Rock, Died Last Sunday
in Memphis.
Little Rock, Oct. 30. —Dr. Geo.
W. Hudspeth, one of the leading
physicians of Little Rock, died
i unexpectedly at Memphis at 8
o’clock Sunday morning, and the
remains were brought yesterday
to his late home, at Tenth and
Louisianna, whence the funeral
will be held.
Three weeks ago Dr. Hudspeth
left for New York for treatment
by an eminent specialist, being
accompanied by Mrs. Hudspeth
and Dr. W. B. Burns, of Mem
phis, a former partner. But the
nature of his malady was such
that he did not go further than
Memphis.
When he left here, neither he
nor his friends considered his
condition alarming, although the
t act that 3uch extreme measures
were being adopted was evidence
of a realization that his malady
would vield to no ordinary meth
-ods of treatment. The news oi
his death spread rapidly yester
day morning when it reached the
city, and was everywhere heard
with deep regret and astoni-h
ment by thousands who wTere
unaware of the imminence oi
the end.
Dr. Hudspeth removed to Lit
tle Rock about twenty years age
from Hazen, this state, and hac
since then been actively engagec
in the practice, having for many
years held a foremost place
among the medical fraternity
not only of Little Rock, but the
State. He was active in society
work, and a recognized author
ity on abstruse medical propo
sitions.
The funeral will be held Tues
day.
