PTOMAINE POISON FATAL
Young Man From Ravenna Brought Here Yesterday to Hospital.
Albert Rapp, a machinist and aged about 30 years, was brought to this city hurriedly yesterday morning in an automobile from Ravenna with ptomaine poisoning. The young man was in a very critical condition, brought about, it is reported, from eating canned fish, and died at ten o'clock this morning at the hospital. Unfortunately, while on the way down, the young man and several others including Dr. Penn were ditched in an automobile about ten miles west of here. Assistance was hurriedly secured and there was very little delay caused by the mishap. When the men arrived in this city they were bespattered with mud.
Albert Rapp was a single man and has relatives living in Lincoln and Burnham. The father arrived in the city this morning but too late to see his son alive. The remains will most likely be taken to the old home for burial.
