    S. L. GRIFFITH DYING, HAD PASSED INTO A STATE OF COMA AT HIS CALIFORNIA HOME AT LAST ADVICES

    Burlington Daily Free Press
    Burlington, July 21, 1903

    A telegram was received this morning from Mrs. S. L. Griffith at San Diego, Cal., saying that probably Mr. Griffith could not live but a few hours. Coma had set in and the physicians gave no encouragement that he could recover. The first news of the serious turn to Mr. Griffith’s illness came Saturday night when Mrs. Griffith sent a telegram asking W. H. Griffith, a nephew of the ex-senator to come at once. He left immediately but probably cannot reach San Diego before the death of his uncle.
