FORMER RESIDENT OF COLO IS DEAD

Colo, Nov. 15--A message came Sunday morning saying that Edward A. Binder died Saturday night at 10 o'clock at his home in Baraboo, Wis. The body will be brought to Colo and is expected to arrive some time Tuesday.

Mr. Binder had not been well for some time, but his relatives and friends did not realize that the end of his life was so near. The fact that his wife has been critically ill for several months, making, what is feared to be losing fight with cancer, adds to the sadness. Mr. and Mrs. Binder have lived the greater part of their lives in or near Colo, and both are highly esteemed by a wide circle of friends here who are grieved by the death of Mr. Binder and deeply sympathize with Mrs. Binder in her time of grief and suffering.

Mr. Binder was about fifty-five years of age. He was a leader in the Methodist church. For several years he was associated with his brother-in-law, W. F. Shaw, in the grain and lumber business here.

He leaves to mourn their loss, his wife, three brothers, Frank and Charles, of Baraboo, Wis., and John of Colo; two sisters, Mrs. Amanda Thornton of Minnesota, and Mrs. Mary Morgan of Rolston, ----es many other relatives and a host of friends.
