Obituary of ALBERT W. RITCHEY |
Albert W. Ritchey Born, July 20, 1856 Died, January 24, 1907. As announced last week, A. W. Ritchey whose home was in the city, died at 11 o'clock p.m. on Thursday, January 24, 1907. About three months ago Mr. Ritchey went to Kansas City and while there he was quite severly hurt in a street car accident and was compelled to remain in a hospital in that city for several weeks. After returning home he seemed to improve and hopes of his complete recovery were entertained. About three weeks ago, however, his condition became worse, and upon the advise of his physician, he went to Wichita and underwent a surgical operation. Following the operation, complications set in and in the end heart
failure was given as the immediate cause of death. Albert W. Ritchey was born in Fulton-co., Ind., on July 20, 1856. He
was, therefore, at the time of his death, 50 years, 6 months and 4 days
old. He married on October 29, 1878, in Bourbon-co., Ind., to Miss Jennie
L. Perrin. Four children were born to the union - Wilbur, Mrs. Ethel (W.)
Scott, Earl and Mildred, all of whom, with the wife, survive the husband
and father. |
