Mount, James Atwell

Ex-Governor, James A. Mount was stricken by apoplexy on Wednesday evening and in 15 minutes was dead. His death was a universal surprise. The body will be interred at Oak Hill Cemetery, Crawfordsville tomorrow afternoon. He was born and spent most of his life in this county. While yet a boy, he saw three years service in the Civil War. Beginning with nothing, he became a successful farmer; served his county in the senate; was elected governor, which station he held for four years with credit. He conscientiously did the duty that came next to hand. His death at the comparitively early age of 58 is a great loss to the state. - typed by kbz
