Obituary.


Died: At his home near lola at 6 a.
m, April 8, 1892, A. J. McCarley in
the Sind year of his age.
1t has been a long time since the
death of any man in lola or vicinity
has been so generally regretted and
so deeply lamented as that of az
McCarley. Coming here when a
youth of %, in 1860, he has been dur
ing all the years that have passed
since then prominent, respected and
influential citizen. He was a fine
business man, as his success in farm
ing and the handling of stock testifies,
and he was generous and public spirit
ed to a marked and unusual degree.
He had no political ambition, but up
on the demand of the people he served
six years on the board of county COM
missioners with eminent credit. bring
ing to the transaction of public bust
ness the same energy, zeal and clear
headed sagacity that marked the
management of his own affairs. He
was not connected with any church
and made no religious professions.
But he was friend to the widow and
the fatherless; his door stood wide
open for any who came for shelter; his
purse was never closed against the APP
peal of distress: his hand was never
withheld when its strength was need
ed to sustain the weak; he never rob-
bed or defrauded anybody of that
which was his due: he never went
back on friend. And so it was that
many loved him and all who knew
Il 4 /, 4
he died the people came, from the
town and from the country, hundreds
of them, to testify by their presence
the sense of their loss.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. VIM Hawkins, at o'clock on
Sunday afternoon, and the attendance
was very large, assuring the stricken
widow and the sorrowing brother of
the sincerest sympathy of the entire
community.
Died: At his home in lola April
6, 1892, l.. f. Rhoades, in the 10Th
year of his age. The deceased was
born at Newport, Ohio, April II, 1916,
In 1887 he removed to Illinois and in
1912 was married to Miss Mary Nc
Dowell. Five years later his wife
died and in 1851 he was married to
Mrs. Caroline Anderson, who survived
him but a single week, as will
be seen by reference to our local col
umns. He removed from Illinois to
Missouri in 1854 and from there he
came to Kansas in 1857, locating in
Allen county where he has ever since
resided. In the early days he was
one of our most prominent citizens, /
and engaged actively and successfully I
in business. Owing to unfortunate l
investments, however, the larger part |
of his property was lost aud for sever /
al years past his health has been such 4
as to prevent mis- engaging in any reg ,
ular occupation. He was a man of
much native force of intellect, of thor
Oughly upright character, and of gen.
erOus impulses, and enjoyed the sin
cere respect of all who personally
knew him.
The funeral services were held at .
o'clock Friday afternoon, April s,
Rev VIM Hawkins officiating.
