Welsh Chorus 10 Sing Here

The Washington Herald of Nov.
18th, 1913, commented upon the
work Of the Gwent Welsh Male Sim
gers in a manner which showed that
music lovers of the capital city were
given a worth while treat, which
will be duplicated to residents of
Miller at the opera house on Tues
day evening March 80 when this
famous organization makes its first
local appearance under the auspices
of the Miller High School.

Of Herald goes on to say:
The Welsh Choir of fifteen sing
ers known rs the Gwent Welsh
Male Singers, gave two song re-
citals at the Belasco Theatre yester-
day afternoon and evening. The
choir is composed of we'll trained
voices. all capable of solo work, and
the program alternated between
the full choir, and 500, duct and
quartet numbers.
Mr. George +. Davies. the leader,
has his choir well drilled in all re-
quirements of voca! masses. The
shading was good. and the melodic
and harmonic phrasing was fully
adequate to the mucic given. rhe
best of that was the martial type,
in which the choir brought out a
beautiful volume of tone IN vigorous
style.
Some excellent work of this kind
was done in THE Soldiers Chorus.

Death of N. Il. Lowell

Friday evening about SIX o'clock
the grim messenger came to call
another pioneer citizen to his last
reward. n. e.. Lowell was sitting in
his chair at home in this city talking
to a friend when he suddenly passed
away, at the age of II years. He
had been a robust man and vigor-
Gus up to a couple of years ago,
when a spell of sickness reduced him
greatly in flesh, and left him in poor
health.
Nels Lowell, as the older citizens
all knew him, was an early dav set
tier in Logan twp, on the farm now
occupied by his son, Edward. For
several years past he has been a res
iGent of Miller. He was a man of
admirable disposition, leading a
simple life of industry and kindness
to his friends and nerghbOrs, ever
ready to greet them with a smile
and a CHEEKY word a man whom
it is good to know and count as
friend. He loved the out door life
of the farmer and stockman, and
labored every day, patiently, cheer,
fully-Satistied with what Provi
dence brought him. He served his
country well IN the civil war of a
half century ago, then returned to
the life he loved on the farm, am0 ~
his horses and cattle, and as the
months grew into years, and the
years into decades, that great drama
of his boyhood became as a dream
of the long ago. His family of
three bows and four girls grew up,
and n by n departed from the
family home to establish homes of
their own, according to the laws of
life, until he was lett alone with the
wife and mother, who has been his
loving help-mate for so many years.
One daughter, Mrs Tyler died some
years ago.
For more than twenty seven years
the Press has made its weekly visit
to the Lowell home, and its last tri-
butte to this old friend is one of the
highest regard and respect for a
life of simple. honest, sincere man.
hood. conscientiously performing
his duties as they came to him, con-
tent with Gods glad sunlight, and
Indifferent to the glare of public
notoriety.
Nelson e, Lowell was born in Scott
county. Iowa. Sept. 20, lS43 and
died at his home in this city. March
IL, 1915. He was married to Miss
Eliza Cochran at Dixon, Iowa, Oct.
