Death Of Thomas Burxess.

Thomas Burgess died at the home of
son George four miles east of Cresco
the 9Th inst. of old age and compli-
cation of old ailments.
The deceased was born in Canada,
June q, 1888, and early in life came to
Wisconsin state, where he lived until
1866, when he located at Bluffton. He
was we'll known in that vicinity as q
good neighbor, also as very temper
rate man.
Mr.. Burgess was married twice and
had four children, three sons and one
daughter, all of whom, both wives and
children, preceded him in death except
Chas. Burgess who now lives north of
Button and Geo. Burgess of four
miles east of Cresco.
He held to the faith of the Adventist
church. The funeral services we're
held in The Friends shurch of Bluffton
by Pastor E. w. Wolfe of Cresco Ad-
ventist church. Words of comfort
were spoken from John Ia: l-3 and
Rev. 81: to large assembly of friends
and relatives and the remains were laid
to rest in the little cemetery on the
