Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

On July 7, my husband, Dr. George 0. Shoemaker, of this
city, passed away, the cause of death being coronary
occlusion, sudden. & o : ‘

I am now confronted with the problem of making some
disposition of his office and business. Already there
have been a number of inquiries from patients concerning
this disposition, and I am eager that some conscientious
Osteopath have the benefit of his long years of ptactice
and reputation. Doctor Shoemaker was a graduate of
Kirksville College, Class of 1901, and had practiced
longer in Wichita than any other dsteopath.

Wichita is considered one of the leading defense cities
in the United States, and a still greater influx of
population is expected in the near future. Office space,
therefore, is limited. Doctor Shoemaker's office, which
is now available, is located in one of Wichita's best
downtown locations, and the rent is reasonable. The
office is well equipped with McManis Table and fairly
new office furniture. |

I am keeping the office intact until August 1, and if
you know of any Osteopath interested, you may contact
me at 418 E. 14th, Apt 2, phone 2-1259, Wichita; or

you may contact Mr. I. E. Rumpf Building Manager,
Fourth National Bank Building, Wichita, Kansas.

Yours very truly,
Dx Mawnge ©. rhb aha
Mrs. George 0. Shoemaker
