Mr. A.M. Willits, father of Mrs. Al Brown, died of the grip at 11 a.m. today. He was in his eighty-fifth year. Mr. Willits came here about two years ago from Anderson, Ind., to live with his daughter. He has a daughter living at Anderson and two sons at Elwood, Ind. They have been notified by telegraph, but it is hardly thought that any of them can come to the funeral. Unless word should be received that some of them are coming, the funeral will take place at 2 p.m. tomorrow from Mr. Brown's residence conducted by Rev. Cartwright, the evangelist who is conducting services at the Congregational church.
