William Jennings Bryan Dies While Sleeping
The great commoner died in his sleep of apoplexy at his Dayton home after a day of speeches and travel. Mrs Bryan, calm and composed, spoke of Arlington burial, possibly as a colonel in the Spanish American War, with son William Bryan Jr to be consulted. Telegrams of sympathy flooded in while the town mourned, and preparations began for an Arlington funeral.
