AN HONORABLE
CITIZEN SUCGUMBS
TO ILLNESS
Capt. G. w. Suesberry Died

Circles

Capt. George w. Suesberry died
in Evansville, Ind, Saturday p. M.
at o:30 in a hospital, where he was
taken when seriously overtaken by
illness. His death was due to a COM
plication of ailments.
He was born in Breckenridge Co.
KY, Feb. IL, 1884, and at the time
Of his death was IS years, 3 months
and II days old. When small boy
he came to Illinois and lived in Ran
dolph county until 1890.
Up until about five weeks ago he
was enjoying his usual health. He
seemed to realize that this was his
last illness and told Of many things
he wished done in case he should die.
For about 20 years Capt. Sues
berry had resided in Mt. Vernon and
he was a man who stood high in the
estimation of his fellow men. BE
was regarded as one of Gods noble
men and one who was not afraid to
stand up for the right in spite Of the
opposition that might be brought
about.
In church work he was very active
and for rs years was superintendent
of the Methodist Sunday school in
Steeleyille. His membership was in
the Methodist church. His life had
been so lived that men honored and
reyered him; it had been so lived that
it will be an example TO those with
whom he was associated; it had been
SOLVED as to establish an assurance
that what he did was right so far as
he knew.
Capt. SueSberry commanded Co.
K. of the 18th Illinois cavalry, and
he was one of the best soldiers in the
service of his country. His comrades
speak in glowing terms of his active
service and the manner in which he
treated his men, He belonged to
Coleman Post, G. A. R. of this city.
During recent years he spent his
winters with a daughter who resided
in Kentucky, but always seemed glad
to get back to Mt Vernon among the
people he had so learned to love and
who so loved him.
AT the close of the war Capt Sues
berry returned to SteeleviIle, where
he was actively engaged in merchan-
dising for a number of years.
He was married three times, his
last wife being Miss Rachel Tindall,
of Steeleville. Two daughters, Miss
Mamie Suesbery, and Mrs w. E.
Martin, of Evansville, survive the
union. Three children died in in
fancy. His last wife preceded him
to the grave is years ago.
The funeral was conducted with
military honors at Steeleville today,
the body being taken there on the
Wabash train this morning.
