Allen, Orin (? - 16 JUN 1911)

Word has been received here of the death of Orin Allen, which occurred at Iona, Wash., June 16th, 1911, after a long illness. After the loss of his home here by fire about four years ago, Mr. Allen and family went to Dakota and took up a homestead. Later he disposed of it and removed to Iona, where they conducted a boarding house. Mr. Allen had been a resident of this village (Humbird, Clark County, Wis.) for a number of years, coming here in the early '70's. In 1879 while at work in King's mill, which was being operated at that time by E. D. Carter, Mr. Allen met with an accident that resulted in the loss of a leg below the knee. He was a man well thought of in this community and leaves many friends who mourn his death.
