John King, a former well known resident and business man of this city, died at his home in Chicago last Tuesday, after a few weeks illness, of apoplexy, aged about 54 years. Mr. King was in the real estate business here for some years, and engaged in mercantile pursuits for a short time. He removed to Chicago a few years ago to be with his sons. He will be pleasantly remembered by many friends. His remains were brought here on the 10:40 train this morning, and the funeral took place from the home of his mother, Mrs. Darius King, at 1 o'clock this afternoon.
