Myocarditis and Auricular Fibrillation. Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle, which can weaken the heart's ability to pump blood. Auricular fibrillation (now commonly called atrial fibrillation) is a common heart rhythm disorder where the heart beats irregularly and often rapidly.
Together, these conditions indicate that he suffered from significant heart strain. In the early 20th century, the relentless physical demands of rural farming often meant working through severe illnesses without rest, which likely placed an immense, compounding burden on his failing heart.
