A. F. Harold , the old gentleman who for several days has been near death's door at his home at Tenth and Short, passed away yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock.
The coffin, in which he will be buried, arrived on a morning train from Diamond, Missouri. It was made by the dead man's own hands, when he worked as a cabinet maker in his younger days. Some time ago he ordered handles for the casket of Boice & Son.
