A. W. DURLEY IS DEAD
WAS ONE OF THE PIONEER LAWYERS OF THIS CITY DIES AT HOME IN SUPERIOR
Remains Will Be Brought to His Former Home and Laid Beside Those of His Wife Who Died Some Years Ago—Funeral on Saturday

Friends in LeMars received word yesterday of the death of A. W. Durley, which occurred at his home in Superior, Wis., on Wednesday. The remains will be brought to LeMars for interment and the funeral will be held here on
Saturday in charge of the Masonic fraternity. Mr. Durley was a former long time resident of LeMars and was one of the leading attorneys of this city in the early days. He was associated with the legal firm of Curtis and Durley and later the firm name was Curtis, Durley & Sammis.

Mr. Durley came from Hennepin, Illinois, to LeMars in 1876 and lived here for over twenty-five years. Some years ago he moved to Superior, Wis., which has been his home since. His wife died a few years ago. He is survived by three daughters. He has made frequent visits to LeMars since leaving here and had always kept in touch with his associates and friends here.

He paid his last visit to LeMars in December and at that time was not in his usual rugged health. He was over seventy years of age but his appearance and strong vitality made him appear a much younger man. Many of his friends in LeMars will regret to learn of his death.
