A SUDDEN DEATH Life of-Lemuel Ray Went Out Like a Flash Early this Morning HAD HEART TROUBLE It Caused His Sudden De-| mise While Yet in Bed this Morning Lemuel Ray, bom and raised in ■ Adams county, died suddenly this morning at three o’clock at his home' me quarter of a mile from Monroe, his age being 41 years, 2 months and 17 days. For some time the deceased had suffered from organic heart trou-1 ble, but his condition was not con- ( sidered serious. In fact but last Saturday he transacted business in Decatur and yesterday he attended to his chores about the farm as usual, working until late in the evening. ; This morning at three o’clock, his wife, who slept in an adjoining room from where Mr. Ray lay, heard her husband moaning. She hastened to the bedside but too late to see her companion alive. Life had gone out in an instant and efforts of a physician could be of no avail. The sorrow attending the untimely demise of this husband and father is most poignant. The many acquaintances of the deceased deplore the misfortune of losing a friend and have sympathy for the bereaved widow and three children. Besides these, a sister, Mrs. J. J. Hoffer, who resides at Monroe, survive to join the multitude of sorrowing friends in sharing in the hour of bereavement.
