Ira S. Sickler, veteran fruit vendor of Atchison, died yesterday at his home, 118 1/2 South Fourth street. Mr. Sickler was 77 years of age and a native of Pennsylvania. Forty-five years of his life were spent in Atchison, 35 years of which time he sold fruit here. For many years his stand was a familiar sight at the corner of Sixth and Commercial streets. He was something of a poet, a song writer, and a natural mechanic.
Mr. Sickler was married December 29, 1885, to Miss Emma L. Ligenfelder here. He is survived by his widow, two daughters and two sons; Mrs. Edith Lubkie of Kansas City; Mrs. Hazel Prather of Oak Mills; Alfred Sickler of Ponca City, Oklahoma; and V. A. Sickler of Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Funeral services will be held tomorrow at four o'clock from the Sawin & Douglass funeral parlors and the Rev. j. Hamilton Woodsum of the First Baptist church will be in charge. Burial will be in the Oak Hill cemetery.
