Appoplexy Claims Veneer
able Citizen on Monday
William C. Elliott, Resident of this
Vicinity Died at His Home Mon
day December Is, 1922

William C. Elliott, one of Sank Cen
tres venerable and respected cit
liens, dropped dead it'll stroke of
appoplexy at his home in Hoboken,
Monday December Is, 1922, shortly
before the noon hour.
Mr.. Elliott underwent serious
surgical operation at Rochester about
| 10 months ago, but had practically re-
covered from the effects of this oper-
alton. The would had not entirely
healed and Mrs. Elliott had just COM
| pleted dressing it. He stated that he
felt fine and comfortable. She left
the bedroom for a moment when she
heard something fall. Thinking that
Mr.. Elliott had knocked something
over she called to him and not getting
any response she stepped into the
bedroom but did not see him. She
then thought that he had gone up
stairs for something and she went to
look for him. Upon her return she
discovered the lifeless body of her
husband lying on his back behind the
bed. Death was undoubtedly in
Simultaneous.
Mr.. Elliott was born at Lake Mills,
Wis, April 1851. He grew to man
hood in his native community and on
Feb. II, 1879 he was united in mar
riage to Mary I. Cass. The family
moved to Minnesota and Sank Cen
tire in 1902, and established farm at
Mccormick Lake where they resided
until 1916 when they moved to Sank
Centre.
Five boys were born to this union,
all of whom are living. They are
Ernest, Bruce and Robert of Sank
Centre; Davis of St. Paul, and Harry,
with the Packard Motor Company, Of
Detroit, Mich.
The funeral will be held at the res
idence in Hoboken, today, Thursday,
at 200 o'clock P. M, Rev. Wyand,
pastor of the M. E. church, officiating.
Burial will be made in Greenwood
cemetery under the auspices of the
Modern Woodmen of America of which
organization the deceased had long
been a member.
Mr.. Elliott celebrated his 72nd
birthday last April. Just about a
month ago, accompanied by his son
Bruce, he made an automobile trip
his old home at Neilsville, Wis, where
he thoroughly enjoyed renewing ac-
quaintship with his old associates.
Mr.. Elliott was a splendid citizen,
loving husband and father. He was a
consistent Christian and was fully
prepared to go. His general DISPOSE
ton made warm friends of all with
whom he came in contact.
In the bereavement, the aged wife
and sons have the sympathy of the
entire community,

have some connection with the slack
ening demand, as this rate would
naturally be prohibitive if the CON
tracts had to be renewed often.
A matter which deserves more than
cursory attention is the effect the re-
port Of the Indian Fiscal Commission.
just issued, has had upon the Lanca-
shire cotton interests. Basing their
optimism on expert knowledge and the
enormous difficulties facing Gandhi's
home weaving disciples, British cotton
manufacturers were not much exer-
cised over the spread of the Swarai
sentiment. Now that India is able to
impose tariffs, however, it becomes a
matter Of dealing with Bombay mill
owners rather than few scattered
peasants, and these manufacturers OBJ
flously are exerting influence to ex-
elude foreign competition.
Several representative journals of
the Midlands are beginning to ask if
Indian home rule means the exclusion
Of British products, but the manufac-
eurers themselves rely upon the finan-
cial and labor difficulties which would
attend any large scale attempt to ex-
tend the local Indian mills, as thew
estimate that it would take at least
twenty years before India could pro-
duce enough cotton goods for home re-
pulrements.
