DAUGHRITY DIED EARLY THIS MORNING IN IOWA George A. Daughrity, age 64, of the Model Shoe Company, died this morning at the home of his sister, Mrs. B. F. Truax, at Des Moines, Ia. He had been making his home with his sister since the death of his wife, Mrs. Mary Daughrity which occurred April 1 of this year. Mr. Daughrity had been in ill health for several months during his wife's fatal illness (and) he was under treatment most of the time, so ill that he was unable to be up during the funeral services at the home. He suffered from high blood pressure and other complications. Since going to Des Moines his condition had been regarded as slightly improved until two days ago when he took a sudden turn for the worse. He was a native of Iowa and came to this city about 20 years ago, entering the shoe business. He was a member of the First Christian Church and had served as deacon during almost all of the time he had held membership there. He was also a member of the Masons, Modern Woodmen and Rotary club. Survivors are two sisters, Mrs. B. F. Truax and Miss Mary Daughrity, both of Des Moines. The body will be brought here for burial and will leave Des Moines Friday, arriving here on the early Monon train Saturday morning. Upon arrival the body will be taken to the Day Chapel, 8th and Walnut streets. Funeral arrangements will be announced later.
