A RECORD SEALED.
Archibald cleland Passes Away Sud-
denly From Heart Disease.

denly From Heart Disease.
The remains of Archibald II.
Cleland are to be conveyed to Crys-
tai Lake cemetery today after a
simple funeral service at the under
taking parlors of S. N. Wilkins.
Mr.. Cleland met his death sudden
ly Monday afternoon about q
O'Clock. He became i'll Saturday
morning and was not able to leave
his bed thereafter except by the as
sistance OF one of his room-mates.
The deceased, James Brodie and
Joseph Alberts occupied the small
building at the rear of the Saliva
tion Army hall. Monday after
noon while being assisted to a
toilet near the dwelling. Mr.. Gle
land suddenly sunk to the ground
with groan. After several efforts
to raise the stricken man Mr.. Al
berts found that his companion had
little or no pulse, and that he had
ceased breathing. A boy who was
near was directed to go and hurry
a physician, whom Mr.. Brodie had
already gone to summon on account
of the development of rather alarm
ing symptoms of Mr.. Cleland's con-
dition. But the latter's collapse
proved the result of a fatal stroke
and the body was conveyed to the
coroner's Office, where upon exam
ination. by DR.. Lee, it was deter
mined that death had ensued from
a designated form of heart failure.
DR.. Lee had previously treated Mr..
Cleland for heart affection.
Archibald III. Cleland was born
in Edinburgh, Scotland, in April,
1855. With the companion of his
later years, James Brodie, he
passed through the common schools
of his native city, after which he
entered large manufacturing es-
tablishment as clerk, and in a few
years attained a prominent and re-
sponsible position.
It seems, however, at this period
of life his strength of character be-
gan to desert him. and in hope that
change of surroundings might ar
rest the decline of his son, Mr.. Gle
lands father sent him to Australia,
where he remained a year, return
ing to Edinburgh at the expiration
of that time. About twenty years
ago Mr.. Cleland came to America,
devoting himself to farming in
Iowa for five years. James Brodie
in the meantime had come to Ben
ton county and purchased ranch
at Summit, and he asked his friend
Cleland to come out here from Iowa.
The latter had lived here fifteen
years at the time of his death, hav-
ing worked as a farm laborer dur
ing that time.
Mr.. C1eland last fall secured an
allowance of $3.50 per year from the
principal OF money left him at the
death of his father. Thereupon
Mr.. Cleland came to reside in Cor
wallis. A semi. annual remittance
is due in few days.
Mr.. Cleland was a gentleman of
kindly and unassuming manner, po-
lite, honorable and industrious.
His father was an artist and de-
ceased had received much instruc-
ton from him in the art of paint
ing. A number of his friends here
are considered fortunate in possess
ing samples of Archibald Cleland's
artistic work. He was a man of
excellent requirements. but in
strength OF character he was weak,
and the temptation of convivial
company long since attained the
mastery of his existence and has
tened the day which sealed the rec
ord.
