J. D. REESE PASSES AWAY, HEART ATTACK ]nternatlonally Known ‘Bonesetter’ Dies After Marvelous Career (Continued ITom Fage One) practice. His fame as a healer spread rapidly, and he was be- sieged by the rich and the poor, by the high and the low. Soon he won the nickname “Bonesetter” by | which he was known throughout the world. Reese treated all who came to him. The rich paid for their treat- ments; the poor paid what they could, and many times they could pay nothing. In his late days, Reese’s patients came in such num- bers that his engagement book was filled a month or more in advance. Famous Patients Among some of Reese’s most fa- mous patients -were David Lloyd George, the British statesman; Will Rogers, American humorist; Fred Stone, the comedian; Ty Cobb, Hans Wagner, and other prominent big league baseball stars; Gene Tunney, Battling Nelspn and other noted prize fighters. One of Reese’s most remarkeble cures was worked on the throwing arm of Glenn Wright, Brooklyn shortstop. The limb was injured in a basketball game in the off sea- son and in the middle of the 1929 National League campaign Wright quit the game, apparently ‘through.’ Rees worked on the arm that au- |tumn and in the spring of 1930 the brilliant infielder came back with a wing that cut down base runners with rifle like throws from all angles of the short field. One group of twenty patients called on Reese for a general in- spection once a year. This was made up of a score of circus acro- bats, who wanted to be sure their bones were in condition for the rigors of the sawdust rings. He treated an average of 80 persons a day. In 1926, for the first time in its history, the American branch of the Welsh Gorsedd selected an American—the bonesetter—to honor with its highest award, the Druidic degree, for distinguished service to humanity. Reese was a Knight Templar, a 32nd degree Mason, a member of the Al Karon and the Mystic Shrines, Cleveland, and of the Congregational church, Youngs- town. In 1857 he married Sarah Richards, who died in 1914. To this union. were born five children. Reese was known to his legion of friends as a quiet, unassuming man, who found real pleasure in the fact that he was of help in aiding suffering humanity. ————— OLD TIMERS’ NIGHT Open house for Elks and their ladies Wednesday night after lodge meeting.
