Obituary - George Sanders, a pioneer of West Liberty, dropped dead on the fair grounds at West Liberty, during the stock judging, yesterday.
He was seemingly in good health as usual, but had been a victim of some of the ailments attendant on old age, of course.
Suddenly, while watching the animals, he collapsed, a victim of apoplexy, and Death claimed him forthwith.
Surviving are his widow and several grown children, one of whom is J. E. Sanders, a well known farmer of West Liberty.
The decedent was a retired business man, having conducted a grist mill in olden days.
Mr. Sanders was a respected pioneer of Johnson county, living near Lone Tree for about 40 years.
