* Died of Typhoid Fever at the age of 45
This 20 page newspaper has small one column headings on the front page: "Wright's Funeral To-day" and "Business in Dayton, O., Will Be Suspended During Services for Aviator" which tells of the recent death of famous aviation pioneer, Wilbur Wright.
Other news and advertisements of the day. Light browning with minor margin wear, fragile, but otherwise good.
Note: Wilbur's father was deathly afraid his family would die of Typhoid, and always warned them to be careful of the drinking water.
