SURRENDERS AT LAST

He has been usually well this summer, being around upon the streets and attending to his business with regularity and unvaried promptness. His death was not anticipated at this time and his family is prostrated with grief. The sympathy of their large circle of friends is warmly extended in this sorrow. The funeral was held at the home on Iowa ave. Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock.

J. B. Dornan was born in Ohio in 1870. He moved here with his mother and sister in 1880 and engaged in the drug trade and was at Lake City two years in the same business. He spent some time in the west for his trouble but permanent benefit never came. He leaves his mother and sister here to mourn his untimely death. The sympathy of many friends is extended them in this bereavement.
