Friends in the city were grieved last evening to learn of the death of J. A. Pratt, which occurred yesterday at the home of his son Allan Pratt. at Columbus, Neb. Until about a year ago, Mr. and Mrs. Pratt resided in this city in their home on West Eleventh street, and at that time Mr. Pratt was quite poorly. Although his death was expected, the news was received with sorrow by the many friends of the family in this city. For some time, Mr. Pratt has been suffering with paralysis of the throat, and it was this ailment which eventually caused his demise. Mr. Pratt was a very industrious an well thought of man, and until his departure for Columbus, was janitor of the Commercial bank building. Besides his heartbroken wife, he leaves to mourn his loss, his son, Allan Pratt, and wife and little grandson. The remains will be brought to this city tomorrow morning from Columbus, and friends wishing to view the remains may do so by calling at the Buchheit - O'Loughlin undertaking parlors between the hours of 2 and 3 p.m. Internment will be made in the Grand Island cemetery. The heartfelt sympathy of friends is extended to the bereaved ones.
