At his late home, north of this
city, on Saturday evening,
June 10th, 1905, at 10 o'clock
p. NJ,
ALoNZo GRAHAM HARD,
After a lingering sickness
Age 70 years, month and 4
days.
The deceased was born in
Shoreham, Vermont, May 9th,
1926, of English ancestry, but
had been in America for many
years. In an early day, he with
his parents, moved to Lockport,
New York, and from thereto
Jackson County, Ohio, where
his mother died.
His father and family after
ward moved to New Jersey,
where his father died.
The deceased received his ed
ucation in Lockport, N. Y, and
At a later date attended school
in Ohio. At an early age he
began to learn the printers
trade in Chillicothe, Ohio, and
after serving his apprentice
ship, he took charge of an Office
in Jackson, Ohio; later, estab-
lished a democratic paper at
Macarthur, Ohio. In 1854, he
came to Maringo, Iowa, and
published the first newspaper
ever published in that place.
Later he came to Harrison
Co. Iowa, and had charge of the
first paper published in this
county, known as The Harrison
County Flag, at Magnolia, then
the county seat of the county,
VIM. M. Hill being editor. He
remained in Magnolia from 1857
to 1871, then moved to Logan,
and in 1872 came to Missouri
Valley where he has since lived.
He served as County Clerk and
Auditor in 1866.
He was united in marriage,
Dec. Bird 1916, in Jackson Co.
Ohio, to Miss Mary Donald, who
died several years ago.
There were born to them a
children, as follows:
Laura j. Frazier, wife of w.
w. Frazier, of this city.
Mrs. Bertha NJ, wife of A. K.
Riley, of Des Moins.
Mary R., (deceased) wife of
J. B. McCurly, of Logan.
VIM. E., died at 4 years old.
Originally he was ademocrat
but on the organization OF the
republican party he united with
that party. He was formerly
4 Congregationalist, but finding
no congregation of that denom-
ination here he and his wife
united with the M. E. church.
In early life he was a member
Of the order Of |. 0. o. F., but
long since dropped out.
He accumulated considerable
property, was a man of sterling
worth, honest in his dealings,
energetic in his business, and
punctual in all his appointments
Since the death of his wife,
he has made his home with his
son-in-law VIM. w. Frazier and
wife, north of this city, where
the funeral was held today
(Monday) at 2 o'clock p. M,
funeral services conducted by
Rev. j. M. Williams, of the M.
E. Church, and burial in Rose
Hill Cemetery.
And thus another good man
has passed over the stream Of
life to the great beyond to rest
until the resurrection morn.

gomery county, Iowa, has 1907

Bye to Girls at tn. Grounds
Medical Students
Attend.

Three hundred high school
cadets, in dress uniform, white
gloves and FURNISHED metal,
marched from the high school
to the Union station Thursday
morning and left for the annual
encampment at Missouri Valley
without incident. Command
ant Stogsdall led the gray pro-
cession down Dodge street to
sixteenth, over Sixteenth to
Douglas and east to Tenth;
thence straighaway to the pas
senger station. The cadet
bl1d. with a number of addi
tions of cold boys" made an
imposing appearance and play
ed inspiring strains at every
opportunity. The high school
faculty did not see fit to let the
girls go to the station to see
the cadets away, so goodbys
were waved at the high school,
and only a few parents and sis
tiers got a chance to breathe
| lst bits of advice to young
hopefuls.
The train that carried the
cadets to Valley Park had six
coaches and one baggage car
and ran over the Northwestern.
The young gaurdsmen had to
wait for quite a while before
the train backed over from
Council Bluffs, and things were
somewhat crowded inside the
iron fence. When a truck,
heaped high with raw rations
and guarded by five stalwart
real army cooks, in khaki uni
forms and khaki helmets passed
by, the cadets cheered Justify;
also every now and then for
the school, the commandant,
and all concerned.
MEDICAL STUDENTS GO.
Two medical students, Ernest
Kelly and ]. c. Arnot, put on
the cadet uniforms again and
went along as surgeons and
camp pathologists.
Visitors day will be Tuesday.
A special train, the time of
which will be announced later.
will run direct to the camp
grounds at the Valley, instead
of leaving gap to be filled up
by carryalls.
Tents and heavy camp equip
ment went to the grounds We'd
nesday in charge of the signal
corns. which laid out the camp
and got things in readiness.
The competitive drill of the
cadets will be held Thursday,
or the day after campis broken,
probably at Vinton Street park.

Attorney Geo. Egan, of Lo-

Charley Larson and O. S

Gil Bluffs today, attending a
meeting of the Missionary COM
mittee of this Presbytery.
W. ]. Bryan is to speak to
tie Spiritualists at their big
m ,eting in Clinton, Iowa, July
I'D, on a humanitarian subject.
For a man with wide range of
possibilities and subject to calls
from every sect or creed or
party, Bryan seems to be the
ideal speaker of the whole
world today. The wonder is
that he never makes a failure
of any engagement he agrees
to. Was there ever in this
country such a man? Denison

Whether or not Logan will
celebrate is a question which
still remains to be settled. There
is still plenty of time to arran &c
for a good celebration but
whether to drop out this year
and let the Chautauqua at Mo.
Valley have the whole crowd
seems to be agitating the minds
of those who generally get up
celebrations. 1t is admitted by
everybody that there is no nicer
place to spend the Fourth of
July than the Logan park, but
perhaps the people get tired of
coming here each year and
would like a change. Logan
Observer.
By all means come to the
Valley. Here every effort will
be made to give the people of
the county an interesting pro-
gram, one which will be worthy
the age and occasion. The man
ayers are sparing neither mon
ey or time to make it a success.
Come, then, and be happy.
