Andrew Herron, a well known stock buyer and a prominent farmer living near Fruits' Corner on the Perrysville Road in Ripley township died Tuesday morning at an early hour. He arose at a little before 5 o'clock and started as usual to go to the barn to look after a herd of fancy cattle that he would not allow anyone else to feed. He had suffered from a severe case of heart failure a few weeks ago. He had been living with his daughter, Mrs. Edwin Ingersol as his wife is dead. Nothing was thought about the delay at breakfast as he appeared to be in his usual health when he left the house. After waiting for some time a search was made and his body discovered in the rear of the barn yard wher ehe had gone to feed the cattle. Medical aid was sought at once but was of no avail for the heart had ceased to beat forever. He leaves two sons, Thomas Herron of this city, Frank Herron, Mrs. William Fink and Mrs. Edwin Ingersoll of Ripley Township. - kbz
