F. Fisher, of the town of Hobart, was found dead in his bed, Sunday morning. His wife had risen about 7 o’clock and got breakfast ready, and then went to awaken her husband, who had worked quite hard the day before, and after calling him repeatedly, she went to the bed and found that he was dead. Calling in a neighbor, they discovered that his limbs were cold and stiff, but his forehead was warm. They applied all the known restoratives without avail. Deceased was 73 years of age, and was a hale and hearty man the day before, never knowing a sick day. The remains were brought to Perham, Monday, and interred in St. Henry’s cemetery.
