                       Death of James Cameron

It was known for several weeks that Mr. James Cameron of Rock township
was quite seriously ill but hopes were entertained of his recovery.
Such hopes were all in vain, however, as he passed away Tuesday afternoon.

Although 62 years of age he had been an active man until a few months
ago when he complained of not being well.  Progressive paralysis set in
finally and resulted in his death.  Mr. Cameron came to this county
last year and settled on a farm in Rock township which he purchased
from Ole Skutle.  His former home was in Winneshiek county.

He leaves a widow and two children, his son Grant being at home and
his daughter is the wife of Pro. F. E. Clark, a teacher in the public
schools of this city.  The funeral services will be held at the house
on Saturday at 10:30 conducted by Rev. Lockwood and the burial will
take place in the Osage cemetery about 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

(Feb. 7, 1895.)
