B. Ross, at Kalispell, Montana. In company with his grandson, Karl Youngstrom, and wife, he took the train last Thursday from Le Mars to Minneapolis, where he spent a day visiting his old-time friend, Charles Huntting, a former associate in the grain business, and then continued on west. Mr. Ross, who has been subject to heart attacks during the past two years, appeared to be standng the trip well and enjoying it, according to a card received enroute fro Karl Youngstrom, but after crossing the mountains in the west Mr. Ross suffered a sudden sinking spell and passed away on the train at Belton, Montana, just a few miles this side of Kalispell, his destination. Whether the attack was brought on by fatigue or the high altitude is not known. Mr. Ross was born in Minnesota and came to Akron with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Duncan Ross, when a young man. He engaged in farming in this vicinity for a number of years and later went into the grain business here and was agent for the Huntting Elevator Co., from which he reitred a number of years ago. He was one of the heaviest stockholders in the Akron Savings bank and was president of the institution at the time of his death. He was a progressive, publicspirited citizen, having been treasurer of the local school district for nearly thirty years and also served on the town council. He was one of the oldest members of Freedom lodge, No. 434, A. F. & A. M., and was affiliated with the Scottish Rite Consistory. Mr. Ross was united in marriage with Dora Hoist on September 11, 1881, and seven children came to bless their union. His wife preceded him in death on October 21, 1934. He is survived by three daughters, Miss Alta Ross and Mrs. E. H. Youngstrom, of Akron, and Mrs. O. O. Stoland, of Lawrence, Kansas, and four sons, Dr. Fay B. Ross, of Kalispell, Mont.; Arden E. Ross, of Tulsa, Okla.; Hobart Ross and Donald Ross, of Akron; also by three brothers, a sister and several grandchildren. Mr. Ross was strongly devoted to his family, and they have the sincere sympathy of the community in their bereavement. A man of generous impulses, of kindly nature and genial personality, he gained a host of friends during his long residence in this community, by whom he will be sincerely missed and mourned.
