Late Dr. Sedberry Receives Write-Up
la Galveston Paper After 1900 Storm
The Record staff has enjoyed
seeing a copy of the 1900 Galveston
Tribune, containing information fol-
owing the destructive hurricane
and flood of that year, which has
a sickening thud in the shape of a
denial of the statements made by
the medical man from the forks
of the creek. Dr. Sedberry was

city, and Julian Hawthorne, well- i “But that is not all. After Dr.

HAWTHORNE STRUCK A SNAG’’ ri9ht on astronomy he proceeded
Found in a Texas Doctor A Wond- to correct a few erroneous ideas
er On Astronomy and Mythology that the author had on the mythol-
"Julian Hawthorne is a name well- j ogy of the ancient Greeks. He pared
known in the world of letters. In
fact, when it comes to versatility
it has been said that Mr Hawthorne
can come nearer writing on every
known subject, and writing intel-
ligently, too, than any of the journ-
alistic and newspaper crowd in
and around New York. But Mr.
Hawthorne, in the language of
C’himmie Fadden, ’was trun down
hard’ by a Texas doctor named W.
R. Sedberry, who lives in a little
town called Clifton, that is some-
where in Bosque County.
“When the Philadelphia North
American sent its relief trains and
efficient corps of nurses and news-
paper men to alleviate and write up
the suffering that was made by
the storm it found more work than
the two doctors in the party could
attend to. In this way Dr. Sedberry
became attached to the North Am-
erican’s party—he having volun-
teered to assist in the good work.
Julian Hawthorne was also in the
party.
"Now it happened that astronomy
was Hawthorne's long suit, and
after the day's work was over he
was prone to view ‘that inverted
bowl we call the sky’ and dissertate
much upon the name and habits of
the twinkling stars.
“As a rule the fellow that hustles
over the very elusive news items
stays a little closer to earth than
several of the fixed stars are known
to be, so Hawthorne’s lectures on
the heavens were to them the lect-
ures of an oracle. The same may be
said of the trained nurses, who
were more interested in giving the
proper medicine at the right time
than in all the stars that ever
shone. But wot so with Dr. Sed-
berry. On astronomy the big,
brawny Texas medic, who wore a
regular parachute sombero, and
whose face was tanned and whose
features were rugged, wa3 an
astronomer from away back. And
now even Hawthorne admits it!
“One evening Mr. Hawthorne
delivered himself of a most learned
talk upon a certain star and its
workings and settled back for the
applause. The applause consisted of
and molded into correct shape for
this famous man of letters the
pedigrees and propensities of these
ancient dieties.
“When Dr. Sedberry finished he
left the presence of this noted
writer, who in a stage whisper
voice asked Sprogle, the manager
of the relief expedition, where in
the devil that sawbones had ac-
cumulated such a store of know-
ledge.
"Don’t know,’ said Sprogle.
‘"Neither do I,’ said Hawthorne,
but I’ll give you the finest suit of
clothes in Philadelphia if you
don’t peep on me.’
“And Hawthorne was downheart-
ed.,
“But Sprogle says the secret is
worth more than a suit of clothes,
so be has given it out.”
.gave the devotion. Qdie Pederson
i spoke on charities, Reverend S.
| B. Knudsen spoke on and sang the
I Reformation Hymn, and Mrs. Hans
| Kalscheuer gave the worship of-
fering meditation.
The TIX’W met September 14
with Esther Circle as hostess. Mrs.
S. B Knudsen, secretary of Educa-
tion, introduced the cause of the
month, '‘Parish Education,” also

and their subjects: Devotion by
Mrs. Louis Suriey, a timely and
informative report on "Meet Parish
Education At Trinity Lutheran,”
and Mrs. Louis Outlaw, who gave
the worship offering meditation.
It was voted to provide $100 for
Christian Education, $100 to the
Hurricane Carla Disaster Fund, and
$25 to assist Marcus Jermstad en-
roll at Texas Lutheran College.
(TLCW gives $25 for each sem-
ester to any youth from Trinity

tral Texas Fair and Rodeo was
