J. Nelson Coleman, one of the most prominent citizens of the south-western 
part of the county, dropped dead on Wednesday evening while attending a 
birthday party at the home of his cousin, T. H. Coleman.
The party was given in honor of the birthday of Mrs. Robert Coleman, a few 
relatives having been invited.  Mr. Coleman walked over with his wife and 
arriving at the house, sat down on the steps, remarking that he had never 
found it so difficult to walk. 
The guests had spent some time in conversation and were then invited to the 
dining room for refreshments.  Nelson Coleman did not rise from his chair when 
the others did, and those who went to his side found that he was dying.  He 
expired almost instantly.
The deceased was a prominent citizen in his community, and was possessed of a 
large amount of property, real and personal.  He was a life-long member of the 
Presbyterian church of Clarksburg.
His wife and six children survive.  The latter are:  Mrs. Verner Wolf, of 
Greenley, Co. ; Mrs. George Van Horn of Loveland, Co.; Mrs. H. J. McClelland, 
of Nowrytown; Albert and William, who live at home, and Paul, a civil engineer 
in the south.
The arrangements for the funeral have not yet been announced.  July 18, 1906
