Was grandson of one of Syracuse's original settlers
Dr. Robert Furman Adams, 72, retired, died yesterday afternoon at a private sanatorium, 1922 James street, after an illness of three years.

He was a member of the Park Presbyterian church and is survived by a sister, Mrs. J. H. McMichael of Shanghai, China; three cousins, Dr. Charles F. Adams of Chicago, Mrs. Predonia Mann Martin of New York and Miss Abby Croly of this city. the funeral will be Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Oakwood chapel, with burial in Oakwood cemetery.
