Death of Wm. Morgan.

William Morgan, one of the old settlers of the eastern portion of the county and a former resident of Sherman township, died Wednesday morning at his home in Colo. He had a severe stroke of paralysis about six month ago, and the stroke has been a few times repeated, so that his condition had for some time been very critical, and his death does not surprise those who knew him and were familiar with the course of his illness.
