DIED OF HEART FAILURE

W. D. Curtiss died very suddenly Wednesday morning of heart failure. Tuesday 
Mr. Curtiss visited his daughter at Lansing and Wednesday morning he did his 
chores as usual and ate his breakfast. He moved his chair back from the 
table and sat down. His wife noticed him gasp and he died almost instantly 
and without saying a word. The grief stricken wife at once summoned 
neighbors.

Mr. Curtiss was 67 years and 8 days of age. He had lived in this township 
for many years. Funeral will be held at 11'0clock Friday at the house.
