PAckWOOD.

One of the saddest deaths that ever
occurred here was that Of E. A. Miller
who died without moments warning.
He had partaken of supper with his
health and the best of spirits and was
reading the evening paper when he fell
over dead. A physician was hastily
summoned but found life extinct. Apo
plexy was the cause Of his death.
Edwin Ambrose, Miller was born in
Hamilton county. Ohio March Is. 1874.
His parents came to Iowa when ne
was three years old and settled on a
farm near Danville where he grew to
manhood. He served bravely through
the war Of the rebellion, being mem
Der of the 25th Iowa infantry. At the
close OF the war he was married to
Miss Lou J. Snyder. who with their
only child, Arthur W. of Mt. Pleasant,
survives. In 1894 Mr. Miller came to
Packwood, having become owner Of the
two grain elevators. He was business
man Of great acquaintance and had the
confidence Of a large patronage. For
several terms he was mayor OF Pack
wood and at The time of his death was
serving his second year as president Of
the Farmers Savings bank at this
place Mr. Miller was identified with
no church. FIe was friend Of all. He
s. was an attendant at the M. Z. church
and was one Of the most liberal gvers
when there was call for help. A friend
to the poor and needy he was held by
them in high esteem and love. His
death is an irreparable loss and a
nall of sadnass~is over the town. The
funeral was held Saturday at the M
r. church, Rev. T. K, Holiday con-
Quoting the services. Several beautiful
and touching selections were sung by
the Packwood male quartet. A pro-
fusion Of beautiful FLOWERS were pre-
scented by the business men. the Ladies'
Aid society and loving friends as
q token OF tseem and affection. At the
close Of the services all who desired to
were permitted to look for the last
time upon one who had been so good
and true, and sobse were heard on all
sizes as the ca ket was borne out and
taken to the Packwood cemetery.
Mrs. Miller has the sympathy of all
in her great affliction. The beautiful
Christian life IS ended, but the mem
orv OF it will long remain.
A large number of relatives and
friends attended the funeral coming
