Last night at nine o’clock, Taylor Slaughter, who resided two miles east of Colfax, died of uremic poisoning, after long months of suffering.
Mr. Slaughter was the son of Joseph Slaughter who died a few months ago. He was 50 years of age and a successful farmer. He had tried for some time to get relief but failed. He leaves a devoted wife and children to sustain the loss of a kind husband and father. ~ The Newton (IA) Daily Herald, Thursday, February 5, 1903
