his brother-in-Iaw, of New Boston,
and his friend w. j. Church Of
AIedo came Immediately on learning
of his death, to Redwood to assist in
taking his remains to AIedo for
burial.
The remains were taken to the old
home at Aledo Sunday, after a brief
service conducted by Rev. j. j.
Ehrstein at the Drury home, where
he breathed his last. his sorrowing
fellow townsmen and relatives act
ing as escort, and his good works
will not soon be forgotten by those
with whom he had lived a fruitful
and upright life.
A fellow townsman of DIR. Rey-
nolds who came here to accompany
the remains back to Illinois, fur
nishes us material for the following
outline of the doctors career:
Monroe G. Reynolds was born in
Drury township, Rock Island ILL.,, in
1856, being the second child of
Drury and Esther Reynolds, both of
whom are dead. When a young
man he chose the medical profession,
graduating from Rush Medical Col
lege and beginning his professional
career at Eliza, Mercer county, from
which which place he removed to
Aledo, in the same county, in 1891,
where he built up a spledid practice
and continued until a few months
ago, when he became greatly inter-
ested in his Redwood county invest
ments, amounting to 800 acres of
land, which he expected to improve
the coming summer and quit his
medical practice. The doctor had
been a tremendous worker, almost
day and night in the practice of his
profession for nearly thirty years.
and his Mercer county friends re-
GREETED his leaving that field. AL
though the doctor had accumulated
a comfortable fortune, he had al
ways been generous to the poor and
needy and his honesty and business
qualifications were never questioned.
his business associates entrusting
him with large sums of money at
various times without asking bonds
or any restrictions whatever.
DR.. Reynolds was a good citizen.
and while never seeking office. was
an influential Republican, and as
such had more than once declined to
allow his name to be used as a can
didate for congress from his district.
However he consented to serve one
term as a member Of the Illinois
legislature and has a!so served as
mayor of Aledo. He was known as
a progressive Republican and was
also unalterably opposed to the
liquor traffic. He was many times
called upon to make temperance adj
dresses and did not shrink from do
ing so. While not church member,
he was always ready to work with
church people or any organization
for the benefit of mankind, and nv
ing just upright life, was always
quick to act and fearless to speak.
He was member of the Masonic
lodge and chapter, and also of the
Eastern Star.
DR.. Reynolds was married to Emma
Hartwig Of New Boston, Oct. 1888.
who died ten years later. To tham
was born Karl A. Reyno1ass who
recently moved onto the farm west
west of this city. About the year
1900 DR.. Reynolds was again mar
ried to Ella Graham of Aledo, who
survives him. His brother Ira of
Aledo and sister Rhoda Duncan of
Kearney, Nebraska, also survive
him.

who nave pronounced themselves upon
this subject is our own candidate for

Mr.. Osborn has emphatically declar-
cd himself ia favor Of protecting the
wage Garner By legal enactment and
has incorporated such a declaration In
his platform.

speeches. says that men must work in
hazardous places They will continue
