Selden Norton, an old resident of Grants Pass, died suddenly at his home on A street yesterday afternoon about 6 o'clock. The apparent cause of his death was heart failure. Ex cept for a slight attack of rheumr- tlsm he had not been 111, and the end was entirely unexpected. Mr. Norton was born in Erie, Pa., on July 14, 1832. He was first mar ried in 1854, and from that marriage one son survives him, Albert S. Nor ton of Galena, Kas. He came to this city In 1893 and settled in the home on A street, where the remainder of his life was passed. Having been left a widower, he married again In 1898, taking as his wife Mrs. R. H. Matti son of this city, who survives him. Mr. Norton lived a constant christian, respected by all acquaintances and loved by friends and neighbors. Albert S. Norton, who was Immedi ately notified of tne death of his father, is on his way to this city from Kansas, and funeral arrangements will be deferred until after his arrival. S.
