Ruben Ward, a man forty years of age who had been employed on the Ed. 
Strohbehm ranch near New Plymouth, died Friday morning in the Ontario hospital

found in bed with his clothes on at the Strohbehm ranch Monday afternoon of 
last week by Ralph Hall.  He had done the farm chores the evening before but 
did not seem to remember much about what he had done.  He was brought to the

Ontario Tuesday.  A brother living in Oregon was notified but was unable to 
get to the hospital before death came.
