An obituary reports the sudden death of T. R. Tanner, former governor of a great state, in a springfield motel. Accounts describe his final hours as he sat with his son Col. T. M. Tanner and his sister, with medical staff arriving too late to save him. The cause cited is heart failure, though a physician notes no confirmed organic heart disease. Tanner’s public career spanned sheriff, circuit clerk, state senator, U S marshal, state treasurer, and governor from 1898 to 1901.
