THOMPSON, W.A. - Fountain County INGenWeb Project

Attica, Oct 26 – WA Thompson, the veteran real estate man of Attica was found dead in his rooms above Frank Sheridan’s grocery about noon on Wednesday. He has been confined to his rooms for several months and was gradually growing weaker.  Wednesday morning one of the Lutz brothers, who looked after and supplied his wants took his breakfast to him and arranged it on the bed for him to eat, then left him as they were in the habit of doing. When Lutz returned with his dinner he found Mr. Thompson dead and his breakfast was untouched; it is supposed he died soon after being alone.
