A. C. Luther
Dies of Heart Failure Last Sunday While on Road Home From Twisp
All Winthrop was shocked when the word came over the wire that A. C. Luther had died of heart failure, Sunday. Mr. Luther had been in poor health all winter, never having fully recovered from an attack of pneumonia, and has been constantly under the doctor's care. Last Sunday, accompanied by his son Archie, he drove to Twisp to consult with his physician. On their return he was suddenly stricken with heart failure. He was taken into the home of Ples Rader, whose ranch they were passing, but death resulted almost instantly. He was immediately brought to Winthrop to the home of Dan Robbins, his brother-in-law. The funeral services were conducted from the Methodist Church, Tuesday, by Rev. Taylor. The casket was covered with floral offerings by the school children, C. F. Thorp, Thos. Wills, Mrs. Decker and Mrs. Storey. The body was laid to rest in the beautiful Winthrop Cemetery.
Asaph Colgrave Luther was born in Rhode Island, August 4, 1861, where he spent his youth, moving west in the early 80's. He was united in marriage at Spokane in 1895 to Miss Louisa Smith, to which three children were born: Archie, Sarah Gladys and Mary. In 1907 he and his family moved from Lake View, Idaho, to near Winthrop and purchased the relinquishment of Thos. Wills' homestead, on which he resided until his death. He was a kind husband and father, a good neighbor and made friends wherever he went. By his death the community loses one of its best citizens. He will be missed not alone at home but by a large circle of acquaintances.
