      SUDDEN DEATH OF DR. JOHN J. O'BRIEN
      Dr. John J. O'Brien for twenty years a resident of St. Louis County died suddenly about 11 o'clock last night at his home on Sutter avenue of a hemorrhage of the lungs. In the practice of his profession Dr. O'Brien was very conscentious and in the most inclement weather and at the most unseasonable hours would order out his conveyance to answer the call of the poorest of his patients. Though of robust health on one of these calls of professional duty last winter he contracted a cold which resulted in a chronic irritation of the lungs. In the spring he went to Europe to rest and recuperate, and though he improved he did not recover his former good health. He was contemplating an extended trip to Southern California, when the unexpected end came to his illness. Dr. O'Brien leaves a wife and six children. the eldest daughter being in attendance at school at St. Charles.
