Edward Crouse Dies of Heart Failure (MY NOTE-ERROR IN HIS NAME)
Coming In From Smoking Pipe and Reading Paper, he Took Drink of Water and Sank Down:
Coming in from outside, where he had gone to smoke his pipe and read a newspaper, Edward Crouse, who lived with his son, W.R. Crouse, three and 1/2 miles southeast of the city, last evening took a drink of water and then sank down gasping.
His son supposed at first that he had fainted or suffered an attack of strangling. He summoned neighbors and they helped him try to revive his father pending the arrival of physicians. When the doctors came, they pronounced the patient dead.
Mr. Crouse was 64 yrs old. He was a pioneer resident of the Leanna neighborhood, east of the city, and his body will be buried in the Leanna Cemetery, beside that of his wife. The funeral services will be conducted by E.A. Blackman, pastor of the Christian Church. The hour will not be fixed until all the relatives are heard from.
Mr. Crouse is survived by 5 children- 3 sons and 2 daughters. Besides the son here there are 2 in Kansas City. One daughter lives in Osowatomie, KS, the other in Sedalia, MO
Heart trouble was the cause of death. Mr. Crouse appeared to be in his usual health early in the evening, eating a hearty supper and then going outside to smoke and read.
His full name was Adam Ludwig Johann Freidrich Krauss (Krause). When he immigrated to America he changed his name to Louis Adam Krauss because of the negative feelings toward the Germans at that time.
