Fergus Falls Daily Telegram, Sept. 80.
Yesterday morning Elllng Ellingsen, 6f-
teen years old, son of Ellif Ellingsen,
suddenly dropped dead. He had been
complaining of not feeling well during the
summer and was very weak and emaciat-
ed, but as his symptoms had not been very
alarming nothing was done for him, be-
yond administering few home remedies.
Yesterday morning he went out fishing
and returned about noon, complaining of
feeling very sick and faint. DR.. Eisen was
sent for at once, but it was too late, for
just as he entered the door the boy at
tempted to rise from his chair
and fell back dead. Just what cause his
death cannot be ascertained without max
ing an examination. It was probably
from some disorder of the heart. As there
are no circumstances whatever that could
cause suspicion that the death was due
to other than natural causes, no inquest
will be held.
