    Blood Poisoning
    Resulting from Typhoid Fever Caused Death of J.A.S. Gray.
    J.A.S. Gray, for many years Secretary of the Chatfield & Woods Company, passed away at his home 1941 Auburn avenue, yesterday, after an illness of seven months. The immediate cause of his death is said to be blood poisoning, that came as a result of a long siege of typhoid fever.
    Mr. Gray was 63 years old. He was born in Covington, where he resided until his removal to Mt. Auburn about two years ago. His father was one of the pioneer residents of that city. He rose to his position as a member of the firm through merit, and his associates speak highly of his fine business acumen and sterling integrity.
    A widow and five children survive him. Arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed.
