Armour Dead
Kansas City Packer – His Life
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 27 – K. B. Armour, the packer, died at his residence here at 6 o’clock this afternoon. Mr. Armour suffered with Bright’s disease and weak heart; and had been sinking gradually for three days. Mr. Armour had been ill for two years and had vainly sought improvement at various health resort in the east and south. Last summer he went to Glen Falls, N. Y., but he suffered a relapse and was sent home there weeks ago on a special train to die. He showed improvement until Thursday when he took a serious turn for the worse.
Kirkland B. Armour was born at Stockbridge, N. Y., in 1854. He was the son of Andrew Watson Armour, who was for many years conspicuously identified with the Armour interests in Kansas City and entered the packing house firm in 1872. After the death of his father, he was made vice president and general manager of the Kansas City branch and upon the death in 1898, of S. B. Armour, he succeeded to the presidency. He was in  the directories of half a dozen Kansas City concerns. Mr. Armour has been for years a breeder of blooded heifers and on his farm near Kansas City had some of the finest stock in the United States, included among them being many importations from the English royal herd. He was twice president of the National Hereford Breeders association. Mr. Armour leaves a wife and three children.
