Operation for Cancer of the Stomach Proved Fatal
Elliott O'BRIEN, who had been connected with the Erie at Salamanca
for thirty-six years, and was one of Salamanca's most well known and respected
citizens, was taken to Buffalo Friday to undergo an operation by Dr. PARKS for
tumor of the stomach. The operation revealed the fact that it was cancer of the
stomach instead, and as a result the unfortunate man died late Saturday night.
Mr. O'BRIEN was 54 years of age and leaves a widow, five daughters
and one son, also three brothers and two sisters to mourn his loss.

-A bad fire occurred at Salamanca last night, which resulted in the total
destruction of George A. ELLIOTT'S large barn near the Western New York &
Pennsylvania depot. None of the live stock was burned. The firemen were
helpless, as no hydrant was near enough for connection. It was insured.
