Mike Crossen is Struck by Cramps and Dies. Yesterday morning Mike Crossen was assisting Leasure Bros. in driving some cattle through the back waters about four miles southwest of LaCygne. They came to a small branch about fifteen feet wide which they had to swim. The parties who were with CROSSEN swam across and knowning that he could swim paid very little attention to him. When they looked, however, he had disappeared. It is thought he cramped and lost the use of himself. Mike CROSSEN was a good, easy-going honest fellow; one who was respected by all and who tried to do right. He leaves a wife and three small children. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/linn/obits/c/crossen667gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
