"Antone Fischer Dies at Ranch Home Early Today - One of County's Earliest 
Settlers Answers Call While Taking His Customary Morning Rest in His Chair; 
Came to Johnson County in 1879
	Antone Fischer, 73, one of this county's earliest settlers, passed away 
this morning while relaxing in his chair at his ranch home three miles 
northwest of Buffalo.
	Mr. Fischer, who had been in ill health for a long time, had gotten up 
early in the morning and when his family arose at 6:30 a.m., he was found 
dead.  I had been customary for him to arise during the nights or early in the 
morning and relax in his chair in the living room.
	He was born in Kansas on November 1, 1873, and at the age of six he 
came to Johnson county with his father, the late John A. Fischer, who 
homesteaded on the present Fischer ranch.
	Funeral services are incomplete pending word from the survivors living 
elsewhere, but will be in charge of the Flint Funeral home.
	He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Minnie Fischer, five sons, Leo of 
Evanston, Wyo, Carl of Custer, S. Dak., Jack of Chicago, Ill., and John and 
Robert of Buffalo, who were associated with their father in the ranching 
operations here; one daughter, Mrs. Edward Carney of Seattle, Wash.; four 
brothers, Edward of Fruitvale, Idaho, and Frank, William and Charles of 
Buffalo, and two sisters, Mrs. Louise Menth of Los Angeles, Calif., and Mrs. 
Mollie Lolley of Riverdale, Calif.
	A complete obituary will be carried in the Bulletin next week."
