Gee. Y. rrisby peaa

George w. Erisby died It his home
near Capron. Woods county, Oklaho-
ma. on Sunday. May l7th, 1908.
The body was brought to the Lodi GEM
etery m Eagle townihip. Barber county,
Kansas. for interment. where the deceas-
eds wife is buried. on Monday. Rev.
F. c. Ward, pastor Of the Baptist church
Of this city. conducted the funeral services
at the grave.
MIR. Fnsby had been IN poor health
little more than year. In April 1907
he was stricken with paralysis and came
very near dying. He was taken to a
hospital IN Kansas City where he was
treated about two months. The treatment
benefited him very much and for short
tune he seemed to be getting along very
well but it soon became noticeable that
ms BRAIN was becoming affected and at
periods his mind seemed to be gone. For
the past three months he was rational only
at short intervals. The final cause Of
death was paralysis of the brain.
George Frisby was one Of the best men
that ever lived in Barber county. He
came here when the country was new
and accumulated large ranch and large
herds Of cattle and was known to many Of
our people. His good nature, his ster-
ling honesty and his invariable reliability
are traits that have endeared him to all
who had business or social relations with
him and his death brings profound sorrow
to all.
Mr.. Fnsby sold his ranch about two
years ago to Ed L. Peckham Of the D.
K. & G. Ry. Co. Soon after that time
he removed to Capron. Ok, but was
back and forth frequently until sickness
prevented.
Two sons, Fred and Frank Fnsby
two brothers and two sisters survive him
Mr.. Fnsby was born in Peoria coun-
ty, Illinois. He came to Barber county
In 1874. He was &c years, | month.
