[3, 4] - Aged Man Dies Suddenly
Reads to Daughters and Expires as He Locks Door for the Night.
Death stalked unwelcome in to the midst of the Otis family, 2500 Schurmann avenue, last night. David Otis, age 68, was reading with this daughter in the sitting room of the home. It was an evening custom in the Otis home, as the father’s eyes were growing dim. He and his daughter talked some of what they had read, and the old man got up from the table and walked toward the front door to lock it and get ready for bed. With his hand on the lock he reeled and fell. The daughter sprang to his side, but the tongue which would have answered her questioning was stilled.
The cause of death is given as heart trouble. He had been feeling very well for several days, and had made no complaint of any sort. A son, Harry Otis, travels with the John Robinson Circus. Yesterday the show was at Bellefontaine, O., but today the Otis family does not know where it is and can not get word to him.
