DEATH TAKES YOUNG MAN

DANIEL FLOOD EXPIRES AFTER SHORT ILLNESS WITH PNEUMONIA

WAS WELL KNOWN

Esteemed by Hundreds of Friends, Death Brings Sorrow to Whole Community;  Funeral Announced Later
 

There was sadness today among the friends of Daniel Flood at his death, which occurred last night at 10:30 o'clock at his home in Milan Township.  The young man who had been ill a wee, after a brave struggle for life, succumbed to pneumonia.

A splendid character admired by everyone who knew him, the death of Daniel Flood seems particularly sad.  He attended the schools of this vicinity and had grown to young manhood here.  He was born January 17, 1891, and had always lived in DeKalb County with his parents.  Left to mourn are his parents, four brothers, John, Thomas, Jr., James and Martin, who is in the army and is expected home, and two sisters, Kathryn and May.  Funeral Services will be announced later.
