| CRICKET.-Died, of abscess, at his
| residence in this city, at half past two
o'clock, Saturday morning, June 10, 1898,
WM. CRICKET, aged Il years.
| This removes one of the earlier settlers
| of the county, the deceased having come to
| Iowa twenty-five years ago, and being a
resident of this county during that time.
He was born in Washington county, Pa,
and early in life removed to Ohio. In 1868
he came here in the interest of the King
Bridge company, of Cleveland, and was the
pioneer bridge builder of the county for
sixteen years. For several years he has
been somewhat enfeebled, owing to a wound
in the side dating back thirty-fve years
| when he suffered a fracture of three ribs in
i a game of football. Several times an alb
scess has formed at this wound, and it was
from this cause the end finally came. Six
teen years ago he was bereft of his wife,
and there are left FIVE children, Mrs. A. T.
Drinkle, Misses Ella and Floy, and two
sons, VIM. and Richard. He was a famil-
lar figure on the streets of this city, and
maintained a keen interest in all local and
| general affairs. His presence will be
missed from among us, and to the bereaved
sons and daughters the sympathy of all is
extended.

ERT w. son of Mr. and Mrs. David GarwOod.
Funeral from yearly meeting house al
half past ten o'clock, Thursday, June l5.
Friends invited to attend.
He was born in Mahaska county, August
81, 1871. For some years he has been a
member of Oskaloosa Monthly Meeting OF
| Friends. Though associating with Friends
| in Christian work he had tender sympa-
| thy for societies of morality and gospel
| truth. When deceased he was an esteemed
| member of the l. o. T. During his mem
| bership with the Y. NJ. c. A. he partook of
| the richest glories of full salvation. His
last public testimony, one week before his
| death, was given for Christ at the Epworth
League, in which he said: "Seeing then
that all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner of persons ought ye to be in
| all holy conversation and godliness." His
| acquaintances had noticed during the last
three months of his abiding with us a
| marked developing in the beauty of holi-
ness, a ripening to enter the Harvest Home.
To his home and friends he leaves the
precious remembrance of a life hid with
Christ in God. The last few days of his
| suffering testified to the power of God to
| sustain while in bitterest agony. The
prayers of his parents were answered in
| granting him quiet and serene hour in
| which to pass beyond mortality, to realize
the blessedness of Immortality with Christ.
