Death of Brother Esta Miller

FROM a letter written by Elder I. H. Evans, February 22, we learn the first particulars concerning the death of Brother Esta Miller, in Shanghai, China. His death occurred on February 20. About five days earlier he had an attack of appendicitis, for which an operation was performed on the sixteenth by Dr. Sharp, a Harvard graduate, and the surgeon in charge of the Harvard Medical School in Shanghai. The doctors hold that he never really came out from under the influence of the anesthetic, and that the chloroform poisoned his system. Everything was done for him that it was possible to do with the facilities at hand in that field. The anesthetic seemed to paralyze the system, and he was unable to rally.
