CONSUMPTION CLAIMS PROMINENT YOUNG MAN
John Landis is dead after an illness lasting for only a few week. Many attend funeral.

John G. Landis, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Landis, passed away at their home just east of the city Saturday morning. The remains were laid to rest in Good Will Cemetery Monday afternoon after funeral services at the Landis residence conducted by the Rev. G. Halleck Rowe, of Shoals.
John's health began failing only a few months ago after a severe attach of la grippe and when told by a local physician that he had tuberculosis he immediately left for Colorado Springs and entered the Modern Woodmen sanitarium in the expectation of regaining his usual robust health. He had been there but a short time when word was sent back by the physician in charge that nothing could be done for him and so in a few days more he was sent back home where he lived but three weeks more.
Mr. Landis was only twenty-four years of age. He was born in Sumner, Illinois, but came to Loogootee with his parents at the age of only eight and has resided here since. Besides his parents he leaves two sisters; Mrs. A. T. Long, of Indianapolis, and Jessie, who is at home.
For a number of years John had been an employee of the Southern Indiana Glass Works. He was a valued member of the factory's base ball team and was highly respected by both employers and associates. The factory employees and the ball club members attended the funeral in a body.
The funeral services at the cemetery were in charge of the Modern Woodmen lodge of which John was a member and in which he carried one thousand dollars of life insurance.
He was a well known young man and was liked by all who knew him. His premature death is a very great regret to a large circle of friends.
