THE SILENT REAPER.
JOSEPH TODD.
Joseph Todd died at his home in Los Angeles, Cal., Monday, Feb. 24, 1908, at the age of 82 years. Mr. Todd was an old resident of Decorah, from 1858 to 1887 when he and his family left for their new home in southern California. He is survived by his wife and three daughters, Mrs. Mabel Brooks of Los Angeles, Mrs. Eager of Wisconsin and Mrs. Zack Gardner of Ridgeway. Two other daughters died in womanhood and preceded their father to the better land. Thus it is our friends are passing over, one by one.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he was born Jan. 23, 1826 and is buried in Mountain View Cemetery in Altadena, CA; however, it shows he died March 24, 1908 which doesn’t agree with the above.
