WILLIAM B. AVERY DIES AT AURORA OF HEART TROUBLE

William B. Avery, 65, one of the best known residents of Cayuga county died yesterday afternoon at the family home in Aurora, following an illness of several weeks with muscular heart trouble. At the time of his death, Mr. Avery was a member of the County Board of Elections. He had served as supervisor of the Town of Ledyard several years ago.
Although it had been known that he was ill, the news of Mr. Avery's death came as a shock to his friends in this city, where he was widely known and where he had spent much of his time since being associated with the Board of Elections.
Mr. Avery was an elder of the Presbyterian Church at Aurora. He was born in Aurora and had spent practically his entire life in that village.
Mr. Avery is survived by his wife, five sons, James, William B. Jr., Frank and Dudley of Aurora, and Benjamin of Ontario, Canada; and four daughters, Mrs. William Gould, Burkeville, Va., Mrs. Charles Ward, Hingham, Mass., Lydia Avery and Ann Avery of Aurora.
The funeral will be held at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon at the late home, with burial at Aurora. Rev. G. P. Sewall, pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Aurora, will officiate.
