Word was received here the latter part of the week of the death of R. Vanderburg, at Richmondville, New York. Mr. Vanderburg had been in ill health for many months, suffering from a complication of diseases, the most prominent of which was a serious liver trouble. He left here on December 16, for his old home in New York, going to Richmondville, where he remained at the home of his niece, Mrs. Nellie Johns, up to the time of his death of January 21st. Mr Vanderburg had lived here a number of years, and left considerable property here. He was a man well liked by all who knew him and his Guymon friends were among his last thoughts, for he spoke of them and wished them well shortly before passing away. He was buried in the Richmondville cemetery.
