Jacob Miller.

Jacob Miller was born at the
village St. Wendl, Prussia, Novem-
Der %, 1886, died at Lebanon, S.
D., January Z, 1905. He came with
his parents to America in lS48.
They settled in Allegheny county,
N. Y, and in 1854 he came with
his parents to Delaware county,
Iowa, where he resided until five
years ago when he came to Potter
county, South Dakota. His father
was one Of the early pioneers in
Iowa where he secured government
lands for himself and sons.
While residing in New York state
he was confirmed in the Lutheran
Church in his fourteenth year. He
continued to live in that faith all
his life. He was tolerant toward all
christians of other faith than his
own.
His life was spent entirely in
farming except period during the
civil war and the latter portion when
ill health made it impossible to con-
tinue the work. He enlisted in the
fall of 1862 in the 9th Iowa cavalry,
company g and served till the close
Of the war.
At the close of the war lie came
back to his parents home in
Iowa. He was married to Mary A.
Balluff on March 90, 1868, at Ell
kader, Clayton county, Iowa, and
they started housekeeping on his
farm in Delaware county, Iowa.
There were seven children born to
them; three of them preceded the
father to the Spirit World, dying in
infancy. The surviving children,
Mary q. (Mrs. John Howe), John A.,
Katie A., and Francis c., and the
mother will severely mourn the de-
parture of the husband and father
who was ever faithful, loving and
kind. They all reside here in Pot
ter county: His only brother who
Is about SIX years his senior sur
wives him. They still retain their
property in Iowa. They came west
to be with their children-the
parental affection was thus shown to
be strong. The common domestic
and civic virtues were well blended
in his character. Kindness and
generosity characterized him both
at home and abroad.
The funeral services were held at
IL o'clock a. M, January Ii, 1902.
