Henry Weibel, of this city, aged IS years.
Mrs. Weibel was a Christian for many
years. She had many fine and admirable
traits of character and to her family her
loss is u~nspeakable and irreparably great.
The INTELLIGENCER extends sympathy to
them in their affiiction. Her suffering was
very great and surely death brought to
her n welcome rest, a sweet surcease OF
sorrow.
Died, in Kansas City Mo-, July 4th, 1896,
Mrs. Jennie Walker, wife of Jno. Walker
and daughter of the late Granville r.
Page.
She was the subject of a surgical opera
tion and succumbed to the dread ordeal.
She was a woman of many noble and
admirable qualities. Frank, cordial, warm
hearted and sympathetic. She was ever
prompt to Engage in every work whose
aim was the good of the sick, destitute or
heavy of heart. She was greatly loved by
a large circle of friends. Rarely, in the
country, has such a procession followed
any one to the grave. On all sides in the
large assem- blage were heard the warm
aud loving praises of her goodness of
heart and life mingled with words of
sympathy for the bereaved family. The
services were conducted by Ed. Geo.
Plattenburg at her home. The interment
took place in Higginsville.
Died, at Las Auimas, Col, July g., 1896,
Russell E. Goode, aged % years.
He was born in Illiopolis, ILL.,, July 0,
1874, and moved with his parents to Lex
ington six years ago.. He became a
Christian in his early youth. He had
been delicate for a lumber of years, and
on last Monday yielded up the spirit
which God had given.
Russell Goode was but % years of age,
and yet he had made an impression upon
the world that will not soon be forgotten.
Young in years, kind of heart, %magnani-
nous of soul, ever ready to assist a friend
and forgive an enemy, a generous, noble
son and friend, he has left behind memo
ries of a life as honest as it was simple;
as noble as it was useful.
Russell will be greatly missed by a large
circle of friends, who, by his unselfish life
had been drawn to him.. He was one of
Lexington's bright, intelligent, moral
young men. His character was unim-
peachable. He was a manly young man,
and one who enjoyed the confidence of
every one who knew him. He is gone
now, and no words of consolation can
heal the sorrowing hearts of family and
relatives. Words cannot relieve their
burden of sadness. To his devoted par
ents and family, we point you to the
great Captain of souls. Russell has only
been taken from you for a short time. By
and by you will be called upon to Join
him in his glorious home.
His remains were brought to this city
Tuesday morning. The funeral services
were held at the family residence, on
Wednesday morning at IL O'Clock. The
floral tributes were numerous and beauti-
full. The INTELLIGENCER extends SYM
pathy to the family and relatives.
