LEWIS KIMBALL TYPHOID VICTIM

Lewis Kimball, progressive young Montrose County farmer, succumbed
Wednesday evening at St. Luke's Hospital to an attack of typhoid fever.

He had been ill over five weeks and had been in the hospital about three weeks,
and tho he put up a brave battle for his life and had the best attention skilled
science could give him in the hope of saving him, The master who rules the universe
willed otherwise and he was called to his reward at 9:30.

Mr. Kimball had been a resident of Montrose for nearly two years and was a man well like by everyone who knew him. Upright in character and a kind friend and neighbor,
thoroughly devoted to his home, his death is a loss to the community.
