Obituary
Peter Bellman was found dead in his room at the Burlington house on Front Street yesterday morning. He had been at the county farm and had returned to the city a few days ago. He seemed to be in fair health. Peter Bellman was a native of Sweden about 70 years of age and had been in Burlington many years. Here he followed the calling of a fisherman and was known as an inoffensive, honest, industrious man, and he had the one great virtue, that he was always cheerful and no matter what had been his luck he always came in smiling. He is supposed to have a brother in Chicago, but Coroner Prugh was unable to locate him yesterday.
