VETERAN FROZEN TO DEATH.
Caught in the Recent Storm and Perished Miserably.
Eldora, Ia., Dec. 2.—An old man about 60 years of age was found in East Grundy county frozen to death. From papers found on his clothing it was learned that his name was Frank Brown and that he came from Murray, Ia., but had later lived at Marshalltown, being an inmate of the soldiers’ home. The old man had got caught out in the recent snow and frozen to death.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he was born in 1837 and is buried in Murray Cemetery in Clarke County.
