- William Braton Noyes died at 9 o'clock this morning at his home, 109 South Jackson Street.
He was stricken with apoplexy last evening at 7 o'clock. His condition from the first was serious. Mrs. Noyes hurriedly sent word to neighbors and Dr. Q.O. Sutherland was summoned. Mr. Noyes continued to grow worse and soon he lapsed into unconsciousness.
Mr. Noyes was about the house as usual yesterday and although he complained of not feeling well his condition was not such as to cause alarm. Later in the afternoon he complained of severe pains in the head, and towards evening his condition reached an alarming stage. Physicians were at the bedside until an early hour this morning, but they were only able to give temporary relief.
Death came almost without warning, the sufferer passing away as if in peaceful slumber.
Forty three years ago yesterday Mr. Noyes settled in Janesville and it was only yesterday that he referred with pleasure to his coming to the Badger state. On his arrival in the Bower City he took a position as bookkeeper in John P. Hoyt & Co's. bank which in the early days was located in the Lappin block, corner of Milwaukee and Main streets. After serving for some time in this bank he left and accepted a position in the Rock County bank.
From the banking business Mr. Noyes entered the employ of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad company, acting for twenty years as their local agent. The Milwaukee road at that time had not gained a strong footing in this part of the state and the faithful service of Mr. Noyes did much towards the improvement of the road's business interests no only in Janesville but through the southern portion of the state.
Ill health caused his retirement from active business and after twenty years of railroad service he abandoned his position and sought to regain his health. After a prolonged rest he accepted a position as bookkeeper at the lower woolen mill but again his health compelled him to seek rest. Of late years he has been engaged in real estate and other business enterprises that were less confining.
Mr. Noyes was born in New York City Jan. 11, 1836 and when a mere boy left for the west, settling in Janesville. On Oct. 10, 1858, he ws united in marriage to Miss Julia Ann Dano Page. Their only son died at Monroe in September 1865, aged three years and seven months. Mrs. Noyes died and her remains and those of her son were laid in Oak Hill.
Funeral services will be held from the South Jackson street residence Friday morning at 10 o'clock. Rev. R.C. Denison will officiate and the interment will be at Oak Hill.
On April 10, 1871, Mr. Noyes was joined in wedlock to Miss Amanda J. Larkin, of Madison, the ceremony being performed in the Capital City. His wife and one sister survive him.
For years Mr. Noyes was active in church work. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and was for some time superintendent of the Sunday school. His unquestioned probity and high sense of honor won him the esteem of all who were brought in contact with him, and expressions of sorrow were heard on every hand when the news of his death reached former business associates.
