M. Walter Nellis, Who wss
stricken with paralysis several
weeks ago, and haa@since been
gradually failing, died At his
home 81 miles west Of Scotland
Tuesday night, aged "A years 9
months. Funeral services will be-
conducted in the Presbyterian'
church Friday afternoon. The
procession will leave the house ut
one o'clock and will probably reach
the church about two o'clock, p.
m.
MIR. Nellis was born near the
Grand river in Canada where he
lived until he was seventeen years
of age. He then moved with his
parents to the county Of Bruce
where he resided until coming to
this place in 1873. His first wife
was Miss Margaret Carr, by whom
he had five children, three of whom
are still living-Walter Jr. of Sc
attic, Wash, Alex. Of California
and William Of this place. After
the death Of his first wife he mar
ried her sister who also died about
ten months afterward.
In the spring of 1878 he came to
this country, reaching this place
by stage from Sioux City, and 10.
Gated on government land three
and one half miles west of the
present town of Scotland, where he
resided until his death. In 1879
he married Miss Anna Wagner who
still survives him. By this union
he had eight children, seven OF
whom survive-John, Clara, Alon-
20, Janet, Viola, Albert and Dew
ey, all residing at his home or in
this vicinity. He is also survived
by two brothers, Hector, now Wis
iting in California, and Isaac, Of
Missouri, and one sister, Mrs. Jane
Bellback, living in the Black Hills.
Mr.. Nellis was one of that sturdy
Canadian colony which located
here in the. early days and through
the trying times of pioneer life new
er lost their courage nor their faith
in the country. By perseverance
and industry he accumulated a
comfortable fortune, and has rear.
ed a family which for their honesty,
industry and good citizenship are
q credit to the country.
