Frank
Ladd Dies at Hospital
The death of Frank Ladd, widely known and nearly a
life-long resident of the town of Burlington, occurred at the Mary
Imogene Bassett hospital at Cooperstown, early Monday morning from
heart trouble.
He removed from Burlington to Garrattsville a few
years ago, where he resided until the past winter, when in failing
health he went to the home of Dwight Stone near Edmeston, where he
was taken to the hospital.
Undertaker Clarence Houck of Edmeston went for the
body and removed it to the undertaking parlors at Edmeston.
It is understood that Edmeston Masons will have
charge of the funeral arrangements as Mr. Ladd leaves no near
relatives and was a member of the Masonic lodge at Edmeston.
He was 73 years old. An artist of unexcelled skill,
many places in the Butternut valley have some of his beautiful
decorations. He possessed an unusual witty and cheerful
disposition, making lasting friendships with those with whom he came
in contact.
