REUBEN BROWN-

On last Thursday morning Reuben Brown was found dead in the alley, back of his 
residence in Bellevue. The circumstances as near as we can learn are as 
follows: Mr. Brown arose in the morning feeling as well as usual, and after 
eating his breakfast went out to look after some chores which was his usual 
habit. Mr. McDonald in passing by the alley saw him lying on the ground and 
went to him, finding him in an unconscious condition. He called for aid which 
was close at hand, and Mr. Brown was carried into his house. Dr. Fowler was 
immediately summoned, who upon examination pronounced him dead. Less than an 
hour had lapsed from the time he left the house until he was carried back. His 
health had not been good for some time, and together with his old age he was 
rather feeble, but the immediate cause of death was paralysis of the heart.

The funeral services were held yesterday at his late residence, conducted by 
the Masonic fraternity of this city, Rev. Walker of Dubuque, officiating. His 
remains were put on the evening train and taken to Iron Ridge, Wisconsin, his 
former home, for interment, the place where rest the remains of his first 
wife. Mr. Brown has been a citizen of Bellevue for over twenty years and at 
the time of his death was seventy-six years of age.
