The Washington Republican Washington County Friday June 29, 1900 J.B. Sofield Stricken. Last Thursday evening, June 21, J.B. SOEFIELD, cashier of the First National Bank was stricken in his yard while reading a newspaper. He said he felt a curshing pain in his forehead and he then lost his memory and was helped in the house. Dr. GILSTRAP was called and made an examination. He pronounced the trouble partial paralysis, or a clot of blood on the brain. Mr. SOFIELD is much improved now, so he sits up and has been out on his porch. It is hoped he will soon be able to be at his post of duty.
