WILSON, Edward - {from Beaty} Died at the residence of his parents one mile east of Beaty on Aug. 26, Edward, the beloved son of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Wilson, aged 34 years. The deceased was born in Randolph Co., 0. and came here with his parents when a small boy. Eddie, as every one knew and respected him, contracted his fatal malady while fighting fire three years ago which threatened to burn his father's house and buildings: taking cold which later developed into consumption, causing death. The remains were laid to rest in the Lee graveyard. He leaves father, mother and seven brothers to mourn his demise. The family have the sympathy of the neighborhood in their hour of trouble.
