He was an employee at the depot, of nights, having been thus engaged for two or three years and on the section fourteen years. He went to his work Saturday evening in what seemed to be the best of health, whistling as was his custom, but two or three hours later , he became sick at the stomach and somewhat delirious. He was taken home and given every care, Dr. Wolfe attending, but did not regain consciousness, and died within twenty four hours after taking sick. He appears to have been afflicted with pneumonia. Len was an excellent young man, of industrious habits and the main support of his mother and sister. His sudden death is very much deplored. Tony Rockwell of Sioux City, brother of Leonard, died at Coon Rapids Wednesday morning. He had been sick for several days and with his wife came to Coon Rapids last week being brought home by Leonard and his mother. His affliction appears to have been a combination of tuberculosis and pneumonia. His death, so soon after that of his brother's, makes a double affliction for the Rockwell family, with which all our people deeply sympathize. The funeral of both boys will be held Sunday afternoon at the M. E. church. Leonard Rockwell was born March 14, 1891, at Joliet, Illinois. Went with his parents in his infancy to Mt. Ayr Iowa, and with them to Coon Rapids in 1895 where he lived until his death April 14, 1918. Tony Rockwell was born July 12 1893, at Mt. Ayr, Iowa, and came with his parents to Coon Rapids, Iowa, in 1895 where he grew to manhood. He was united in marriage to Miss Bertha Cecil Good of Winamac, Indiana, June 10, 1916, at Sioux Falls, So Dakota, making Sioux Falls their home a greater part of the time, coming to Coon Rapids a week before his death, which was April 17th, 1918,
