     Prominent Lumberman of Northwest
           Passes Away at His Home in
             Duluth—Burial in Brainerd

      R. M. Stitt, aged 65, more familiarly known to all the old time residents as "Bob", died at his home, 211 Tenth avenue east, Duluth, Tuesday night of tuberculoses. Mr. Stitt was a resident of Duluth for 22 years and was engaged in the logging business. He was, perhaps, one of the best known men in the north country.
      He is survived by his widow, two daughters and a son. They are Mrs. J. G. Graham of Superior; Mrs. William Sheean of Minneapolis, and Arthur J. Stitt, aged 14.
      Funeral services will be held from the home Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock under the auspices of the Elks lodge. The body will be taken to Brainerd Friday morning.—Duluth News-Tribune.
      Mr. Stitt was known throughout the northwest as a lumberman of wide experience. He was the first manager of the Brainerd Lumber Co. mill in Brainerd years ago.
      The body will be met Friday noon at the depot by an escort of Elks from the local lodge, six brothers officiating as pall bearers. (Brainerd Daily Dispatch, 12 March 1913, p. 2, c. 4) [Contributed by John Van Essen]
