Died of Consumption.
S. J. Byron, who arrived here from Chicago, May 8th, died of consumption, yesterday afternoon at 3:40, at the home of A. G. Loring. The deceased was a switchman in Chicago, and in November of last year was terribly injured by a locomotive running over him, breaking both his legs, injuring a lung and other wise using him up physically. Blood poisoning and an attack of typhoid fever followed the accident, and consumption finally ensued, resulting in his death. The only known living relative of the dead man is a sister in Clinton, Iowa, who is deaf and dumb. Funeral services were conducted at the Loring home, this morning at ten o'clock, by Rev. J. A. Badcon of the Methodist church. Remains were buried in Riverview cemetery.

Samuel J. Byron, the young man, who was brought to this city early in May suffering with consumption, died yesterday at A. Loring’s residence, where he was being cared for. The funeral was held from the home at 10 o’clock this morning. Rev. Badcon officiating. Deceased was a man about 35 years of age, and so far as is known had but one near relative, a sister who is attending school at Clinton, Iowa. Byron was an old railroader, and for a number of years was employed in the “Burlington” yards at Chicago. He was injured in the service some time since, the injuries received shattering his health, and ultimately resulting in death.
