Remarkable Case Ends as Invalid Woman Dies
A long deteriorating case ends with the death of a woman who had been invalid since childhood. Her condition left her incapable of motion in later years as tissues ossified and her chest became a solid box, according to the report. Also noted: a major baking powder firm in Muwaches, Wis. faced a $150,000 liability with assets of $64,000 after an assignment. John Prough, aged 106, died in Janesville, a frugal farmer who avoided liquor and tobacco and remained healthy until death.
