EMORY MILLS REPORTED IN SERIOUS CONDITION.
Mention has been made of Howard Mills being called to Muncie on account of the serious illness of his brother, Emory, of that city. Friday Mrs. Emory Mills wired Mrs. Howard Mills to come at once. Mrs. Howard Mills and daughter, Dotftha, left for Muncie Friday, reaching that city in the evening. About 10 o’clock Friday night H. E. Parkison talked to Howard Mills over the telephone. Howard said that Emory was in a very serious condition; that during the day they had a specialist from Indianapolis. He diagnosed the case as inflammation of the brain and said nothing could be done either in the way of an operation or medicine. Not much hope is entertained of Emory’s recovery. Mrs. Charles Mills, mother of Emory, is with her son, Edward, at Woodside, Montana. LATER: A message was received at 2 p. m. saying that Emory Mills died at 10 o’clock this Saturday morning. The body will be brought here Tuesday and the funeral services will be held Wednesday.
