Our people were startled last Friday
afternoon to hear of the death that
morning of George H. Brown. who re-
sided on his farm one mile east of the
city. 1t appears that he commenced
work about his barn at about $50, and
some time later went to the house for
q broom which was the last time he
was seen alive. It was thought that
he had gone to the cornfeld with his
son and hired man, and when they
came in for dinner, Mr.. Browns ab-
sence was Investigated and he was
found dead in the barn and from all in
dications had been suddenly stricken
with apoplexy while driving nail, the
nail being partially driven and the ham.
mer lying on the floor beside him.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon at the home conducted by Rev.
Bockoven. The interment was in Oak
Lawn where he was buried with the
ritualistic ceremonies of the Woodmen
of the World, he being charter men,
Der of the local camp in whose activi-
ties he always took q lively interest.
