Milligan, proprietors of the Milligan Hardware Co., died at 1:30 Saturday morning (Jan. 6, 1906) at his home in Waynesburg, Ohio. His death came as a surprise, as he had not been sick and retired in apparent good health Friday night, and it was not known that he was suffering from heart trouble until an hour before his death.
