Jeff Seevers Dead

Jeff Seevers, of this city, died at the asylum at Clarinda, Wednesday. The body will reach Winterset today and the funeral will occur this afternoon.

Mr. Seevers had been a resident of Winterset many years and his death will cause sorrow to a large circle of acquaintances. He was taken to the asylum only a few months ago and it was hoped that he would recover but he never regained his reason after going there.

He was a bright man in his younger days and at one time was one of the prominent politicians in the county.
