OBITUARY

William Milton Parkhurst Born Jan.
uary 13, 1873 in Holton, jackson Co
Kansas. When years of age, moved
with his parents to a farm 4 miles south
OF Holton. Remained his home until
April 1910, when he moved to Elbert
Colorado. Education was received in
and around Holton, graduating from
the common school after which he en-
tered the academic department of Camp
bell College Of his home town. With
the exception OF few months spent in
the employment of the United States
Express Co at Mcfarland Kansas, he
has followed the occupation of farming
till the summer of 1910 when he desid-
ed to take course in live stock sales
judging, voice, and oratory, at the Mis-
souri, Auction school of Trenton Mo.
with the view of becoming an auction
eer and graduating in August.
Something of his work here)
For number of years, he, with an ell
der brother took charge of the manage
ment of the farm as the poor health of
the father made it mpossible for him to
attend to those duties. After the fathers
death two years ago, he became the
support Of his mother, taking upon him
self all her business responsibilities as
well as other cares. His cheerful dis
position won him many friends where
ever he went and the home has lost
continual ray OF sunshine that his gen
ial personality lent.
(Something of his sicknrss and DEATH
He was taken sick january 6. and re-
mained in Colorado until March 26.
when he and hia mother left for their
former home in Holton Kansas. Think
ing that the change of climate would
benefit him, but Of no avail He pass
ed from this life to a better world Mar.
IL. at $3.50 a. m. Funeral services were
held at o'clock Sunday afternoon. He
remained consious until the last but
was unable to speak to his sister that
was called from Morrison Colo. he
showed signs that he recognized her by
reaching out his hand to greet her. By
some mis- connection his brother who
see him before his death.
He leaves a mother, brother and three
sisters to mourn his loss.
The funeral was held from the christ
ian church in Holten of which he has
been a member sin his boyhood, ard
his remains were laid to rest in the Hol-
ton Cemetary by the side Of his father
to await the resurrection, when all
severed ties shall be united and all par
tings be over
His suffering ended at the break of day;
Yet lived him at its close,
And breathed the long, long night away
In statute like repose.
But when the sun in all its state,
Illumed the eastern skys;
He passed through glorys morning gate.
And walked in Paradise.

School Bond Election.

The election held on Tuesday
for the purpose of voting bonds
for the erection of a four room
addition TO the present school
building in this district brought
out a fairly good vote and show
ed that the people are awake to
the interests of the district and
the need of better facilities. There
had been but very little question
but that the bonds would carry.
as practically no opposition had
been met with when the commit
tee were securing signerS for the
petition but it was hardly ex-
pected that they would carry by
as large majority as they did.
There were 233 votes cast of
which 2O5 were for the bonds,
26 against and twOballOts void
giving a majority in favor of the
of 179. Plans and specifications
for the addition are practically
completed and the board will is
sue a call for bids for erection
of the same in a few days.
