OBITUARY
Palmer.

Loren AFRO Palmer was born in
Fayette county, Iowa, June 5, 1882.
When a child he moved with his par
ents to Monticello, Iowa, where he
was educated and grew to young
manhood. On December rs, 1902, he
was united in marriage with Miss
Lena Schneider of Monticello. Mr..
Palmer learned the creamery bust
enss from his father. For two years
he had charge of a creamery in Lake
lived in Lake Charles, La. Return
ing to Iowa he operated creameries at
Maquoketa, West Union and Ana
mosa. In 1912 the family came
to Cresco where they have since re-
sided, Mr.. Palmer being associated
with his father in the Cresco cream
cry. In the latter Part of November,
1919, failing health compelled Mr..
, Palmer to give up work. All that
medical skill and tender care could
do was done to restore his health,
but he gradually failed and on the
morning Of July sth passed away.
He is survived by his wife and five
children-Clara, Kenneth, Reece,
Maxine and baby Marion, his father,
D. A. Palmer, one sister, Mrs.
Adam Reichort, living in Mon
ticello, and numerous other rel
atives. His mother died in Monticello
Jan. 21, 1902, and his oldest son Geh-
len passed away in Cresco Sept. s,
1918.
During his residence in this city
Mr.. Palmer won the respect and con-
fidence of all who were in any way
associated with him. Upright in his
dealings and of a genial disposition,
he readily formed enduring friend
ships. His home life was especially
pleasant and he was devoted to his
family, and during his long illness
his sole concern was for their well
fare. He will be missed in the bust
ness and social life of the commu-
nifty, but most of all in the home.
A brief service was held in the
Congregational church Saturday az
ternoon. Members of the Masonic
lodge attended in body and c. L.
Terry conducted the ritualistic ser
vice of the order. Rev. W. A. Book
oven offered prayer and Rev. c. L.
Nye pronounced the benediction, az
ter which the remains accompanied
by lodge members and sympathizing
friends were conveyed to the station
to be taken to Monticello where fun
eral services were held Sunday, Rev.
Bockoven preaching the sermon. Mr..
Roe Brown, brother Mason and a
friend of the family, also accompanied
them to Monticello.

SHILOH CAMP MEETING
DRAWING LARGE CROWDS
Big Camp Meeting On State Roads
Draws Its Crowds From -Four
Counties. Many Thousands Usu-
ally Attend On Sundays.

Shiloh Camp, the big camp meet
ing of this county, and probably the
largest on the Eastern Shore, started
last Friday and will likely close next
Sunday night. For many years this
camp ground has been the meeting
place of thousands of persons from
this and adjoining counties, this be-
ing particularly true since the State
road was built AS is known to
practically all of the county people
it is situated on the State road lead
ing from Salisbury to Cambridge, al
so the road connecting the Denton
fredericksburg road from Hurlock to
the Salisbury-Cambridge road.
But years before the State roads
were built, or even dreamed OF, the
people from far and near congregat-
ing at Shiloh Camp. On the first
and second Sundays there would be
seen hundreds of teams, road cars,
runabouts, carriages, daytons, sur
reys, phaetons, etc. in fact, every
conceivable kind of rig could be
found hitched in the woods that
shelters the camp ground. The
camp was kind of public forum in
which the people from all sections
gathered to discuss matters of i'm
portance. In the first circle religi-
Gus services were held; in the sec
ond circle social events were held;
and many a lad and lassie have done
their first counting on the old camp
grounds; many matches have been
made, many maiden wooed, but
strange to say there have been very
few marriages solemnized.
Next Sunday will be the big Sun
day of the Camp. In the morning
at eleven o'clock the Rev. c. Q. Bac-
chus, of Centerville, will preach; in
the afternoon at three o'clock the
Rev. r. L. Shipley, of Salisbury, will
be the preacher and at night the
Rev. E. c. Graham, of Clayton, Del,
will be the speaker. Mrs. U. G.
Murphy, wife of the Rev. U. G. Muir
ply, of Seattle, Wash, is expected to
talk to the young people of her ex-t
perience as a missionary in Japan at
two o'clock in the afternoon.
