Obituary

Frank E. Walcott, the fireman who died at the Drovers house yesterday morning was troubled with such a peculiar disease that physicians were interested in tracing the cause by a post mortem examination of the body. During the week that the deceased was confined inn his bed, he neither eat nor drink anything, and also lost his speech. The physicians who attended and conducted the examination concluded that the cause of his death resulted from paralysis of the muscles of the throat, caused by nervous troubles.
