DIES WHILE ON WAY TO CHURCH
--------------
Mrs. Dan King Fatally Stricken
On Streets of Milton Last Sunday

Milton was shocked Sunday morning by the sudden passing of Mrs. Dan King, an elderly resident, who dropped dead on her way to church services. Mrs. King had not felt well in the morning but believing it would do her good to get out she decided to go to church as usual. She had walked from her home to the east part of town and was in front of the Dora McLeland home when she was seized with heart failure. She was discovered by other church goers.

Rev. George Nicol conducted the funeral services at the Christian church at ten o’clock Tuesday morning. The remains and the cortege left from here for Unionville, Mo., where services were held at two o’clock of the same day. Interment was at Unionville.
