           T. EVERETT KLOCK, 71, EXPIRES
           
           Retired Two Years Ago From Life on
            Lakes After Having Been Master of
            Many Large Grain-Carrying Boats
            Plying the Great Lakes.
            
           Three Mile Bay, Feb. 21 - T. EVERETT
         KLOCK, a retired lake captain who re-
         sided about a mile east of this village
         on the state road between Three Mile
         Bay and Chaumont, died suddenly Sunday
         morning about 7:30 from an atack (sic)
         of heart disease, aged 71 years.
           MR. KLOCK had let his farm for the
         coming year but the tenent had not taken
         possession so Sunday morning he went to
         the barn to do the milking. When he did
         not return to the house as usual MRS.
         KLOCK became alarmed and went to the barn
         where she found him lying unconscious on
         the stable floor.
           She ran in the storm to a neighbor's
         house nearby for help calling the doctor
         by telephone. Neighbors carried him to
         the house where everything possible was
         done to revive him, but to no avail.
           T. EVERETT KLOCK, the son of the late
         THOMAS KLOCK and KATHERINE SPOONABLE
         KLOCK was a life long resident of Three
         Mile Bay where he obtained his education
         in the common schools of the town. In
         early manhood he married ISADORE FRY.
         One son, FRANK KLOCK, was born to them.
           He took up sailing on the great lakes
         and from lower positions advanced to
         wheelsman, mate and captain. Two years
         ago he retired.
           During his life he saw many changes
         in navigation, and from sailing on the
         smaller lake craft, he became captain
         of some of the largest grain carrying
         boats plying the great lakes between
         Duluth and Buffalo.
           He was a member of the Masonic fra-
         ternity, and a man highly respected by
         all who knew him. He is survived by his
         widow, MRS. ISADORE FRY KLOCK, a son,
         FRANK KLOCK of Buffalo, a half sister,
         MRS. WILLIAM VINCENT, and several nieces
         and nephews.
           The funeral services in charge of Chau-
         mont Lodge F. A. M. will be held from the
         home Wednesday at 2 p.m., REV. G. A. FOOTE,
         pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church,
         officiating. Burial will be made in Three
         Mile Bay cemetery.
