John W. Ullery, a well known citizen of Brook, died at ibis home in that town at about 9:30 o’clock Thursday evening. He (had been in rather poor health for several years and his decline had been rapid during the past six months. Mr. Ullery was a civil war veteran and was about 72 years of age. For a number of years he was employed in the census office at Washington and some four years ago was compelled to relinquish his position on account of failing health. He then returned to Brook, where he has-since resided. For a great many years Mr. Ullery lived on a farm near Julian, in Newton county. He is survived by a widow and two sons, Norman, of Brook, and Clyde, of Michigan. The widow has been in poor health for some time. Mrs. Allen Oatt, of Rensselaer, is a sister of Mrs. Ullery and accompanied by her husband went to Brook this Friday morning to be present at the funeral which will probably be held tomorrow.
