Richard Brown, commonly called “Scotty,” who has been cooking at the Farmers’ Home hotel, died at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, of epilepsy, occasioned by a long debauch. His condition became serious Monday morning when he had a fit and these were of almost continuous recurrence until death relieved his suffering. “Scotty” had been around this vicinity for about two years, working on farms and at one thing and another. He was about 45 years old and had served in both the English and U. S. armies. He is said to have a brother in New York, his only relative in this country. Rev. A. G. Hunt, the Presbyterian minister, conducted the funeral services Wednesday at 2 o’clock and the burial took place at Riverside.
