After an illness lasting two years, John Adam MOW, 79, a well known resident of this city, died Monday afternoon at four o'clock at the home of his son, John MOW, on west Third street. Death was due to complications following old age. For the past two years Mr. Mow has been unable to walk without help.
Deceased was born in Rush county, April 11th, 1836, and after moving to Marshall county where he lived for a number of years, he came to this county about 30 years ago.
