Submitted By Sandusky Star July 7, 1902 After long weary months of suffering and fighting the dread disease
tuberculosis, Lea Brittingham succumbed to the inevitable Saturday
afternoon at the West Newton hospital in Boston. Mr. Brittingham left
here in January and received the best of treatment. He had been
injured by a fall and the disease soon developed. At times it looked
as though he might conquer the disease but death won in the end.
Throughout all of his suffering he was patient and cheerful and hoped
for the best, but was always ready for the worst. The remains arrived
in this city at 4:45 o'clock Monday morning from Boston via the Lake
Shore railroad. The body was taken to the residence of Lewis M. lea,
No. 502 Wayne street. Mrs. W. G. Myers, mother of the young man and
Miss Bessie Brittingham, a sister, accompanied the remains. The young
man was well known in this city and popular among a host of friends,
all of whom have been watching his fight for life with a heartfelt
interest and hope that he would survive. Among young and old he was
well known and much sorrow is felt at the news of his death. He was
cut down just at the dawn of young manhood. Had he lived until the
24th of this month, he would have been 19 years of age. Submitted By Van Wert Times Harriet
