J. N. MAHAFFEY, M. D.
(Physician and Surgeon, Shelbyville).
Dr. Mahaffey located at Shelbyville in 1879 and has since been continuously engaged in the practice of his profession at this place. A man of good general education and an experienced teacher before commencing the study of medicine, he then took a thorough professional course, both under an experienced physician and in college, graduating with distinction from the Medical College of Cleveland, Ohio, in 1877. He thus, so far as study and the knowledge afforded by the schools are concerned, qualified himself fully and well for the practice of medicine. He began the practice at Mt. Holly, Ohio, in the spring of 1877, and continued there with excellent success until his removal to Missouri and location at Shelbyville. Here he has built up a good practice, and has taken an enviable position in his profession. He is a prominent member of the county and district medical societies. Dr. Mahaffey was born at Mt. Vernon, in Knox county, O., February 26, 1852. His parents were John and Rhoda E. (Arnold) Mahaffey, both born and reared in Ohio, but each of Irish descent. Dr. Mahaffey was educated at Mt. Vernon and the Greentown Academy, of Perryville, O., and at the age of 17 was qualified for teaching. He followed teaching for several years, and afterwards studied medicine. His preceptors in his profession were Dr. Black, of Amity, and Prof. Metz, of Massillon, O., Oculist. He then took two courses at the Cleveland Medical College, from which he graduated as stated above. March 4, 1873, Dr. Mahaffey was married to Miss Rebecca E. Matheney, of Amity, O. They have two children, Edwin E., and Eva E. November 8, 1883, Dr. Mahaffey met with quite a serious accident. While out hunting with a friend, the latter's gun was accidently discharged, the load entering the calf of the Doctor's right leg. He was prostrated by this for some time and is now only beginning to be able to get about by the use of a cane. He feels thankful that the accident was not more serious than it was, but of course he would feel still more thankful if it hadn't happened at all. It is warmly hoped and expected by his many friends and large clientele that he will soon be able to fully resume his practice throughout the vicinity of Shelbyville, as well as in town.
