Our community is deeply saddened
by the death of one of our most es-
teemed citizens, Geo. A. Bill, which
occurred in New York City, last week
from the effects of disease and surgi
cal operation in hospital. Mr. Bill
has been great sufferer from kidney
disease which has required difficult
surgical operations to be performed
heretofore. At the late county fair he
over taxed his strength, contracted
severe cold, and was compelled to
take a journey to New York again for
further treatment. The trip was a
great tax on his falling strength. The
operation was performed, but he
did not rally. Death came to his re-
lief on Wednesday and his remains
were brought to his old home for
burial, the funeral being held at the
Cong. church, Nov. Goth, Revs Came
ron and Allen officiating We will
give more extended obituary next
week.
