GABE BURNS DIES AT HOME HERE BEFORE MIDNIGHT

Had Lived in Wellston For about Half Century

Father of 12

Gabe Burns, for about 50 years a resident of Wellston, died at his home on north Railroad ave. at 11:50 o'clock last night, Wednesday. He had been in failing health for some time, and heart trouble was the cause of his demise. Since the death of his wife in May, 1927, he has lived alone most of the time, although tenderly cared by his daughter, Mrs. Ed Collins. Mr. Burns was the father of 12 children, of whom five have preceded their parents in death. Those who survive are Mrs. Ed Collins of Wellston, Mrs. Mary Steube of Columbus, George Burns of Dayton, and James, Edward, Harry and Howard of Shelburne, Ind. No funeral arrangements will be made until George Burns arrives from Dayton this morning. In his earlier life Mr. Burns worked on the railroad, but in recent years he has had no employment.
