Roy Breeding, the 19 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson Breeding, 1517 East Walnut street, died yesterday afternoon at the Methodist hospital as a result of an attack of appendicitis. He had been ill about ten days. The young man was well known in East Des Moines, where he had lived with his parents during the past eleven years, moving here with them from Winterset. Up to a short time ago he was employed as an attendant at the detention hospital.
