DEATH OF ERNEST LAYTON
 
Passed Away at His Home Near Salubria Tuesday at 5 P. M.
 
Ernest Layton, an old resident of this valley and a prosperous farmer, passed 
from us on Tuesday of this week.
 
Several weeks ago he, together with all his children, were taken with the 
measles, and Ernest, thinking he had had them when a child, did not think of 
himself in his anxiety to care for the children, and they in consequence went 
harder with him.  He, however, had sufficiently recovered from them to be able 
to be up, when he was taken with an attack of asthma, and in his weakened 
condition he was not able to withstand it.
 
Funeral will take place at 2 P. M. Friday, at the Salubria Baptist church.  
Interment will be in the Salubria cemetery.  Funeral will be conducted under 
the auspices of the I.O.O.F. lodge of Cambridge, of which he was a member.
 
He leaves a wife and eight children.
 
Ernest was one of those thoroughly good citizens whom everybody liked and 
respected.  He had been engaged in farming here for the past fifteen or more 
years, and has been successful, having accumulated a reasonable amount of this 
world's goods.  He has lived upon and operated the farm of his father-in-law 
ever since his marriage to Mr. Colson's daughter.
 
The bereaved family has the sympathy of this community in the deep and 
unexpected sorrow.
