Reuben Bristol, eighty years old, died suddenly about twelve o'clock Monday morning at the county infirmary. He had been an inmate at the home for only a few days, being too old to work and without friends. His health was not the best but he was able to be about and it was believed he would live quite a while. He ate a healthy dinner on Monday and then went to his room where he was conversing with one of the other inmates when without any sign of suffering, he sank to the floor and expired. Funeral services were held at the infirmary Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock.
