John Chapman Dead

Famer Residing South of City Dropped Dead Yesterday.

John Chapman, of one mile southwest of the city, died suddenly late Friday afternoon at his home. Mr. Chapman's wife was in bed at the time with a new born babe at her side and the husband dropped dead at the foot of the bed, after speaking a few words to the wife. The body was brought to Oldroyd parlors in this city and today the family is endeavoring to locate the children of the deceased, who are said to reside in Nebraska. Until they are heard from the arrangements for the funeral will not be made. Mr. Chapman was an uncle of Charles Martin of this city.

The cause of death is given as Bright's disease and heart trouble. Mr. Chapman had been ill for a number of months and the attending physician stated today that his death was due to natural causes. He was about 65 years of age.

The wife and the husband were alone in the house at the time of his death, except for the baby, a boy who was born Sept. 7, and the wife arose from her bed, went out into the yard and called a neighbor who was some distance away. This man was Walter Wilson and he in turn called the family physician who pronounced the man dead.

Mr. Chapman was quite well known in the city. The wife and baby were brought to the city last night and admitted to Mercy hospital. The mother and baby were reported to be doing nicely this afternoon.
