Dropped Dead in a Field.
Albert Fossum, a young farmer of Paint Creek township, Allamakee county, died last week Wednesday while moving a threshing outfit. He was ahead of the rig and had started across the field and his lifeless body was found by his fellow-workmen. Heart disease was assigned as the cause.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Old West Paint Creek Cemetery and was born Sept. 6, 1863 and died Sept. 24, 1902.
