William S. Brown

Claimed by Consumption

Wm. S. Brown, aged about 22 years, died at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, very suddenly, but it has been known for sometime that his time on earth was short. He has been failing . . . [something missing] . . . up until a very short time before death. He was treated at the Indianapolis Consumpive hospital early this spring, the expense being paid by the county, but the relief he received was only of short duration. He has had considerable care by Trustee Muzzall, but all was fruitless with the exception of making him comfortable. His funeral was largely attended at the Christian church, Tuesday.
