James Carroll, one of the oldest settlers in Sheridan County, died at the state hospital in Sheridan this morning after an illness that extended over a year.
Death was due to cancer of the stomach. He settled on land near the mouth of Murphy Gulch 32 years ago, and made his home there until his death.
Cupid appeared to be loafing on the job in Sheridan County last year. According to the county clerk, only 149 marriage licenses were issued in 1914, compared to 163 issued the year before.
