MR. JOHN H. CARROLL DIES
The entire community was greatly shocked on Monday afternoon to learn of the very sudden and unexpected death of John H. Carroll, the well known sewing machine and piano dealer.
He had left his home after the noon hour and gone to his place of business when, in the middle of the afternoon, a stranger walked into the room and found him dead at his desk. For some time past he had been suffering somewhat with ill health but did not cease from attending to his business. Death came without warning due to heart trouble.
Mr. Carroll was born in Licking county, Ohio, Oct. 23, 1849, and departed this life Nov. 27, 1922, at the age of 73 years, 1 month and 4 days. When but a lad of 7 he, with his parents, came to Monroe county, where he remained with the family until he was 17, when he came to Chariton and learned the trade of harness making.
After his marriage on Aug. 8, 1875, to Miss Catharine Boland, they lived for a time in Lucas and Melrose, after which they settled in Chariton, where they have made their home over 50 years. To them were born two children, the older, a son, having died in infancy. The daughter is Mrs. C. J. Day, of Ft. Madison, Iowa.
Besides the wife and daughter, he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Ida McCabe, of Chariton, and Mrs. Lucinda Cornell, of Tingley, Iowa. Two brothers also survive, E. E. Carroll, of Chariton and Albert Carroll, of Denver, Colo.
Mr. Carroll was one of Chariton's best known citizens, having been engaged in business that took him into multitudes of homes in the town and surrounding country. He was always of a congenial disposition and had gathered about him many friends in his business and social dealings.
He will be greatly missed by the many who delighted to come into his presence at his place of business, at home, or wherever he might be. He always had a friendly greeting for all, and "Uncle Johnnie," as he was familiarly known, had won a warm spot in the hearts of old and young, and his passing away has brought sadness to the innumerable friends he had made during his residence of over half a century in Chariton. The sympathy of the entire community will go out to the grief stricken wife, daughter and other relatives.
