Mr. Boyles was stricken while out milking at his home on the corner of Pearl and Perry streets and was conscious when carried into his home by workmen at the McPherson barn. Mr. Boyles had been a resident of Rossville township for about forty years, on a farm and during the last few years as a resident of the city. As we go to press the funeral arrangements have not been completed. An obituary will be published next week.
