Little Miss Margaret Quilter, who has been on an extended visit to the O'Donnell family on Prospect Street,(Bucyrus,Ohio) intended to start today for her home in Jenks, Oklahoma, and was grief-stricken when she received a message Monday evening saying that her father, John Quilter, had died there of malaria. Frank J. Quilter, brother of the dead man, left at once for Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Miss Kittie O'Donnell and the bereaved little daughter, Margaret, expect to go there also this evening. The burial will probably be there although it is possible the body may be taken to his former home at Salamanca, N.Y.

The deceased was aged 56 years and leaves a wife, two sons and two daughters. He was a foreman employed by the Standard Oil company and had been in Oklahoma but five months, his former home being at Salamanca. He leaves one brother, Frank J. Quilter of this city, and two sisters; Mrs. Katie Pierce of Missouri, Ia., and Mrs. Johanna Griffin of Denver, Col. Another sister, Mrs. Bessie O'Donnell died here eleven months ago.
