James T. Rogers.

James T. Rogers, one of the pio-
neers of Decatur county, having re-
sided in this county for more than
forty years, died at his home in Davis
City, Iowa, July 81, 1910, at the age
OF &c years, 9 months and day, his
death being cause by acute indiges-
ton
Mr.. Rogers was born in Lawrence
county, Indiana, Oct. 80, 1889. and
lived there until he was Is years of
age, when he removed to Jackson,
Ind. On July 80, 1862, he enlisted
in Co. K, 10th Indiana Infantry, and
served his country for three years.
He participated in the battles of
Resaca and Kenesaw Mountain. the
taxing OF Atlanta, and was with
sherman on his march to the sea.
The story OF his life during this per-
lod OF the country's strife and blood
shed would make narrative which
would rival fiction in interest, BY
his death there is one less in the fast
thinning ranks of our surviving
heroes, one more gone to answer the
last roll call.
After the war was over he came
west and settled in Decatur county
on farm in Hamilton township, and
continued to make his home in this
county until his death. He was united
in marriage to Miss Priscilla Strick-
land August -, 1857, and to their
union eleven children were born,
seven OF whom with the devoted wife
are left to mourn the loss of husband
and father. He enjoyed the warm
friendship and esteem of many
friends, who extend their sympathy
to the bereaved family.
The surviving children are John
W., OF Wagner, Okla; ]. Henry, of
oklahoma City, Okla; George T., of
Decatur, Mich; Newton Aida. of Ne
oraska; Mrs. Anna Bennett, of De-
catur, Iowa; Mrs. Ella Binning, Cora,
wyoming; Mrs. Eta Porter, of Des
Moines, Iowa.
Mr.. Rogers was a man of upright
character and was member of the
Adventist church. Funeral services
were held from the Adventist church
at Davis City on Wednesday, August
lst, the sermon being preached by
Rev. Neal, of Osceola, Iowa, inter-
ment being in the l. o. o. F. Gene
terry at Davis City. Members of the
q. A. r. Post at Davis City, acted as
pail bearers and laid their old com
rade in his final resting place with
all military honors.

Tim Brooks, of Kellerton, had
quite an experience Friday morning.
While riding railroad veiocipede

the velocipede wrecked. The train
was stopped and he was picked up
and brought to Lamont, but, strange
to say, aside from a good shaking up
he was apparently unhurt-Lamoni
