Death of an Old Citizen

William Doak, for many years a resident of Jefferson township, but in recent years a resident of Dallas, Oregon, died Aug. 21st, 1905, and was buried in the G.A.R. cemetery at Dallas, Oregon. Mr. Doak was a soldier and belonged to the Second Iowa Battery and served during the Civil War. The direct cause of his death was heart failure. He had been in poor health for about six months. His age was about 80 years. The people of his old neighborhood will remember him as an upright, energetic, plucky man, with a standard of honor from which he would not flinch. His aged wife, one son and one daughter survive him.
