WARREN W. DUNLAP

With the death of Warren w. Dun
lap, which occurred at his home on
Thursday afternoon, June %, the old
est citizen in point of years continu-
Gus residence, answered the roll of
pioneers for the promised land beyond.
The Decker and Dunlap families were
the first TO locate in Viioqua, the form
err coming here in lS4I, the latter in
lS49, and from that day to the time of
his death Mr.. Dunlap had made Viro-
qua his home, an unprecedented time
of 81 years. The family came from
Perry county, Ohio, where Warren
was born February q, 1886. The
father, Rufus Dunlap, was the first
store keeper and established the first
pioneer tavern in the new village, To-
eating both in combintion on the pres
ent vacant corner where the old Park
Hotel formerly stood, log structure,
l6x24 feet II stories high. Warren
was clerk in the store and hotel
The father died in 1856, mother few
years later; there were five sons and
five daughters in the family, one son
and two daughters surviving. War
rem Dunlap was married to Miss Mar
tina Owen at Readstown, November
is, 1857, who passed away on April 6,
1901. TO them seven children we're
born, daughter dying in infancy.
Those surviving are Carson II. OF MAD
ison, Elmer f. and Mrs. Blanche Gore
of Los Angeles, Mrs. Thomas Weavil
of ViToqua, Mrs. Harley G. Chambers
of West Union, Iowa, Bert Il. of Sioux
City, all being present at the last sad
rites except Elmer. Mr.. Dunlap was
married to Mrs. Florence Chapman
October /, 1905, who tenderly nursed
and cared for him during his last ILL
ness of several months. Funeral SER
vices we're conducted at the Congre-
gational church on Sunday afternoon,
Rev. Mr. Stevens officiating and the
remains were deposited in the silent
city where deceased had assisted so
frequently in laying away the old and
the young from the earliest pioneer
days.
1t seems almost unnatural that
Warren Dunlap win no more forever
appear upon the streets where he bad
trCdC,en FOR more tHan tNo-thirds OF a
century He has known every person
who has lived in Niroqna during all
these tleetinE years. His schooling
was here, first pupil.
During a majority of his mature
years MIR. Dunlap was in official life,
as constable, deputy sheriff, and he
held the place of county coroner more
years than any who preceded him. In
the days of staging he was engaged in
that business extensively, having lines
to most of the outside points He
had very large personal and official
acquaintance, was of a congenial ma
ture.
Farewell TO the old pioneer and long
time citizen.

MANY PLACES TO CELEBRATE
Seven Communities TO Observe Ma
tional Holiday in Vernon County

There will be no lack of patriotic
observance of the nations one hum
dred and fortieth anniversary, which
falls on Tuesday next. OF more than
usual significance is the event this
year. While foreign nations are en-
gagged in killing strife that will re-
quire centuries to recover from in life
and treasure, we have escaped the
terrors of war. But a southern repub-
lie has practically challenged US to
arms, and even before the national
anniversary is with us we may be en-
gagged in conflict. For months our
standing army has been on the border
line between this country and Mexico.
and now the entire military forces of
Il ? several states are modified in the
respective commonwealth awaiting
orders to proceed TO the border. SO
all is not serene in our own land 1t
is the hope of every patriotic citizen
that we may honorably escape the ter
rors of war.
The places where celebrations will
be held within the county are:
Viola
Ontario
LaFarge
Hillsboro, and
Retreat, by the Woodmen
