Fell Dead on Street At Oelwein.
Register:—Miss Katie Solon fell on the walk in front of John Irvine's residence on South Frederick street at about 9 o’clock, and when found a few minutes later was dead. She had been up to the dump to see the wreck of the bridge, and was on her way to her home on the mile corner. She was found lying on the walk and taken into the Irvine home where it was found that life was extinct. The cause of her death was doubtless heart disease.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows she is buried in the Old Catholic Cemetery in Oelwein. She was born in 1886 and died May 20, 1902.
