Springwater - Tuesday evening occurred the death of Wesley Capron, a former resident of Naples, at his home in Springwater.
His death was sudden and entirely unexpected, as he was not thought to be seriously ill. He had complained of not feeling well for about three days, but was able to be around as usual. He retired about 8 o’clock, saying to his wife that he was feeling tired and would go to bed. He walked up stairs as usual. About 9 o’clock his wife went to his room and found him dead in bed. He had died apparently without a struggle.
Mr. Capron was 60 years of age and had resided in Springwater and Wayland nearly all his life. He was the youngest child of Sylvester Capron and besides his wife, he leaves one brother, James Capron; two sisters, Mrs. Samuel L. Whitlock and Mrs. H. H. Allen, of Springwater; three sons, William of Naples; Ralph of Rochester and Harold of Springwater and two daughters, Mrs. A. A. Haynes, of Springwater, and Mrs. George Elliott, of Corfu.
