Charles Bancroft formerly of this vicinity and a member of the East Peru Odd Fellows Lodge, died at his home in Wyoming the first of the week. Grant Hole received the telegram announcing his death.
At one time he was connected with Charley Manger of Lorimor, in the real estate business. While thus engaged Bancroft and Manger bought the old Milsap store and then sold it out at a sacrifice sale.
