Faultine Miller Dies Suddenly Of Heart Trouble

 

Word was received in Niles last evening of the sudden death of Faultine Miller, 54, a former well known resident of this city for many years.  Mr. Miller was on a street car in Chicago last evening when he dropped dead of heart disease.  He had been employed for several years in Chicago by the Michigan Central Railroad company.

Mr. Miller is survived by a widow, one son, Walter, and one daughter, Eva, all at home; also by two brothers and two sisters, who are: Edward Miller, 1109 N. Front street, Mrs. Ambrose Mather, 510 Sycamore street, and Mrs. Ambrose Davis, 1212 Phoenix street of Niles, and William who lives in Wisconsin.  The deceased was born in Germany but came to Niles with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Miller, and grew to manhood here.

Edward Miller and Mrs. Mather went to Chicago this morning in response to the message, while the other relatives waited to learn the funeral arrangements, as it is probable the body will be brought to Niles for burial.
