BROTHER OF MRS. S.A. TISH HEAT VICTIM

A.J. Morgan, former resident of Poweshiek County and of Grinnell and brother of Mrs. S.A. Tish of this city, was found dead at his home in Des Moines Tuesday afternoon. On Sunday afternoon he had complained of the heat, but nothing was thought of it. When he continued to be absent Tuesday, neighbors became alarmed and upon entering the house they found him dead on his bed. The Coroner pronounced his death due to heat prostration, and the body was cremated.

Mr. Morgan was sixty-nine years old and the oldest son of Milo Morgan. He was raised in Poweshiek County and made his home in or near Grinnell until he went to Des Moines.

The exact date of burial has bot been set, but it will be made in Grinnell. Some of the relatives are away on trips and all have not been located as yet.
