DR. L. D. GLAZEBROOK DIES.

Former Well Known Practitioner of Northern Jasper Answers the Death Summons. Dr. L. D. Glazebrook died at bis home in Knox last Friday at the advanced age of 76 years. For fifty years he was a practicing physician. Back in the fifties he located at San Pierre and while there his work lay very much in the north part of this county. For nigh thirty years his name was a household word in our northern tier of townships. For a number of years he was surgeon for the L. N. A. & C.. Railway Co., between Lafayette and Michigan City. His successful work in his chosen profession, together with his kindly disposition justly won for him the love and confidence of the many people he served. He moved to Knox several years ago where he continued his practice until some five or six months since. In his long practice at San Pierre, then in his prime, no man could scarcely have lived more with and for the people than did he. Dr. Glazebrook, in his day, was the first man in the community in whioh he lived. He served his district two terms in the state legislature, was a deputy revenue collector and pension examiner. For years he wsb the main stay of the Methodist churoh of his town, of which church he was an active member for a full half century — his varied aooomplishmenta, tastes and talents made him useful and agreeable in many more ways than usually fall to the lot of men. He was a first cousin of Lee and Isaac Glazebrook of this place, and a life-long democrat.
