Sycamore True Republican

 

A dispatch from DeKalb to the "Inter Ocean" says that Edward F. Boland, the

oldest man in DeKalb county, died at his home in DeKalb Saturday night, aged

107 years.  He was a native of County Mayo, Ireland, but for the past fifty

years had made his home in America, having been nearly forty years a

resident of this county.
