--Anton Fossey died at his home north of St. Ansgar last Sunday of cancer of the stomach, and the funeral will be held Thursday (tomorrow) at 12:30 o'clock at the home and at two o'clock at the church at Mona. His illness, his trip to Rochester and coming home with the announcement that he had gone too late, has been noted before in the Enterprise, but it was hoped and thought that he would live longer than he did. However when that disease once becomes firmly seated its ravages are rapid. Mr. Fossey would have been 60 years old if he had lived until next month.
