Louis Benson Dead

Passed Away Last Friday After Short Illness With Blood Poison

Many of our citizens were shocked last Saturday morning to learn that Louis 
Benson, a well known young man of this city, and a first class electrician, had 
passed away during the night previous after an illness of short duration, 
caused by blood poisoning  ??  a small injury to his hand while assisting in 
wiring the new silk mill.

Lou was 33 years of age and had done considerable work here, but had also done 
a lot of wire work through the state and was counted one of the best in his 
line.  He leaves a father and mother, three brothers and four sisters, all of 
whom were present to attend the funeral, which was a very sad one.

The funeral was held at the home of his parents on Monday, Rev. N. J. Myers 
speaking words of comfort to the sorrowing family and friends, and the remains 
were laid to rest in River Ridge cemetery.
