DEATH OF Z. K. GRAVES

Zerbina K. Graves of Ames died at his home there this morning after an illness of about a week, which illness, however, did not become serious until yesterday afternoon, when it developed into pleuro-pneumonia. Mr. Graves was thirty-seven or thirty-eight years of age and had lived in Ames all his life. He leaves a wife but no children. He is also survived by his father, Mr. A. J. Graves, who is now quite aged and who had now lost two sons in a few months, F. J. Graves having dropped dead in February last. One other son, E. H., survives, having recently returned to Ames from South Dakota. The deceased Z. K. was a man of force and ability and his death will shock a numerous circle of friends.
