OBITUARY FOR DEXTER DONALD BROWN
Newspaper unknown.
Dexter Donald Brown, age 50 years, died Tuesday at 9:20 a. m. at his home on the William Manson farm in Cuba township, following an illness of three days.
The deceased had never been a rugged physique. He had long been a sufferer from asthma, and late last week he caught a severe cold, which developed into pneumonia and resulted in his death.
He was born at Silver Lake, in McHenry county on Jan. 30, 1876, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. William C. Brown, both now deceased.
On July 7, 1909, he was married to Miss Laura Catlow, daughter of John E. Catlow of North Avenue. He is survived by Mrs. Brown and four children, Helen, Clarence Edward, Lillian and Dolores.
Four years of their married life was spent in South Dakota, near Dupree, where they proved up on a claim of farm land. The balance of the time they have lived in and around Barrington. For some time they lived in the village and Mr. Brown was employed in the C. & N. W. freight house in Chicago.
Funeral services will be held at the First Methodist church at Cary tomorrow afternoon, preceded by brief services at the E. M. Blocks chapel here. The pastor of the Cary church will officiate and interment will be in the Cary cemetery.
