VICTIM OF HEART DISEASE.
Former Resident of Dallas Found
Dead In His Room in Portland
A. Gilman, a former resident of
Dallas, was found dead in his bed
room Wednesday morning at his
home at 381 Front street, Portland.
His death was sudden and evidently
occurred while he was preparing to
disrobe for the night. When members
of the household entered the room
Wednesday morning, the body of the
old gentleman was found lying be
side the bed. One shoe was off, and
the night lamp was still burning. The
family believe that his death was
caused by heart disease, as he was
apparently in his usual state of health
when he went to his room to retire.
A. Gilman was born in Anson,
Somerset county, Maine, January 13,
1827. He was married to Abbie Biggs,
in 1861, and in 1877 moved to Vail,
Iowa, where he resided 22 years. He
came to Oregon in 1899, and lived in
Dallas until about six months ago.
He leaves three children Mrs. G. W.
DeWolf, of Gibbon, Nebraska ; Lizzie
and J. H. Gilman, of Portland, Ore
gon. Hia wife died 23 years ago.
Mr. Gilman was a quiet and un
assuming old gentleman, and made
many warm friends during his four
years' stay in Dallas. He lived a
long and useful Christian life, and
people in Dallas who were his
neighbors iu Iowa all speak of him in
terms of nignest praise.
