GUY TIBBITTS PASSES
AWAY AT ROCHESTER

The remains of Guy Tibbitts were brought here from Rochester, Minnesota, and laid to rest in the local cemetery Monday. He died in the Mayo hospital.

Mr. Tibbitts sustained a broken neck in a fall from a house on which he was working, in Mason City. He was not killed, but rendered helpless, and was taken to Rochester in the hope that he might be benefitted. All that science could do was done for the unfortunate man, but to no avail.

Mr. Tibbitts was badly hurt by a bolt of lightning a couple of years ago at his home near Meroa.
