Greenbusll Departs From This Life.
Last week the UNION spoke of the
serious illness of Donald Scott, of
Greenbush, and this week it is called
upon to chronicle the sequel-death.
Mr.. Scott had been ailing for some
time but his illness did not assume
formidable aspects until recently. He
was afflicted with cancer of the stom-
ach, which disease finally affected that
organ SO that it could not retain nour-
ishment and caused death last Thurs
day morning. The funeral occurred
Sunday at the Prairie school house
and was attended by very large assem-
bly, of the deceased's old friends, neigh
bors and companions of pioneer days.
Donald Scott was born in Canada in
1882. His father died when he was
quite young and the care of the old
homestead devolved on the subject of
this sketch. It was not until 1872 that
he came to Minnesota when he pur-
chased a farm in Greenbush which
continued to be his home until last
Thursday. In 1857 he was married to
Margaret Orton who is now bereft.
The fruit of this union were four chill
dren: Mrs. George Croft, of Montana;
Mrs. Horace Mattocks, of West SUI
perior; John and W. Scott, of Green.
bush. Mr.. Scott was one of natures
noblemen. In his twenty-five years in
Mile 1acs county he established a
reputation for honesty and integrity
(which few men can equal and his death
is deeply regretted by host of loving
friends.
