Another Old Resident Reached End of Life
George Frederick Klein Passed Away Sunday
Death Occurred at the Home of His Daughter at Weeping Water, Neb., and Remains Brought to This City For Burial.
George Frederick Klein passed away last Sunday at the home of his daughter, Mrs. R. C. Fry at Weeping Water, Neb. The remains were brought to this city and taken to the home of his daughter, Mrs. James Hobson, where the funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon.
The deceased, who had reached the age of 75 years and 8 months was born October 21, 1843, at Oberdurkum, Germany. He came to America when he was a young man and was married to Rosa Frederick Kitzele, April 26, 1866, at Burlington, Iowa. Mrs. Klein preceded him to the life beyond about four years ago. Mr. Klein came to this county in the early days and located at Brownville where he was engaged in the meat business for a number of years. He afterward engaged in the same business at the old town of Calvert now a part of Auburn. Since the death of his wife he had made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Hobson, in this city and a short time ago went to Weeping Water to visit his daughter, Mrs. Fry, who lives at that place.
Mr. Klein was a man who had won for himself a place of very high regard on the part of the people of the community in which he had lived for so many years. He had proven by scrupulous honesty high ideals of life and all those attributes of good citizenship that he was a man worthy of confidence. Those who had known him all these years best realize his worth and the loss the community has sustained through his passing.
He was the father of nine children, six of whom are living. These children are Mrs. J. W. Hobson of Auburn, Mrs. R. C. Fry of Weeping Water, Mrs. F. E. Black of Bedford, Iowa, Mrs. Floyd Furse of St. Joseph, Mo., Henry Klein of St. Joseph and Julius Klein of Dawson, Neb. These children have the sympathy of friends in the hour of sorrow caused by the passing of their honored father.
The funeral, which was held from the Hobson home at 2:00 o'clock Wednesday afternoon was largely attended by old friends and neighbors. The services were conducted by Rev. M. E. Bollinger, pastor of the Lutheran church and at their conclusion the remains were interred in Sheridan cemetery.

Took Carbolic Acid and Ended His Life
Robert Larison, One of the Oldest and Best Known Citizens, Took Life by Poison.
Our people were greatly surprised Thursday about three o'clock when they learned that Robert Larison had taken about three-fourths of an ounce of carbolic acid and was just alive. Physicians were called but no relief could be given and he died a little later.
It sees that he went to the shed on the alley west of the house, where he took the poison, and then walked to the house and sat down on the steps. Later he asked Frank Mendenhall, who was starting out in the auto, to call a doctor and went in and laid down on the couch, where he died shortly after as above stated. No cause is known for the act and the family has the sympathy of a large circle of friends.
The deceased was born in Shelbyville, Ind., May 10, 1853, and died Aug. 22, 1918, aged 65 years, 3 mos. and 12 days. He came to Taylor county, Iowa with his parents in 1854 and was married to Miss Martha E. Thrasher Dec. 24, 1878. To this union three daughters were born: Mrs. A. K. Daniels, Stanberry, Mo., Mrs. Emil Anderson, Chicago, Ills., and Mrs. Herbert Russ, St. Joseph, Mo. Four brothers survive him: John and George of Bedford, Ia., David of Washington and Will of Rich Valley, Canada. He had lived in Stanberry for 30 years and in the same home for 20 years.
The funeral was held at the Baptist church Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Lyon. Burial at High Ridge cemetery.

Eaton Man's Father Dies in His Auto
Believing her father, a former Eaton resident, had suffered a stroke, and unaware of his death as she drove, Marguerite Martin, 18, rushed him to Colorado Psychopathic hospital from a point near Brighton Saturday, only to learn upon arrival there, he had died enroute.
The father, James O. [ra] Martin, 44, of Denver, left their home early Saturday afternoon intending to drive to Eaton to visit with a son of James Martin, Donald Martin, who is an employe of the Great Western Sugar company there. Near Brighton, Mr. Martin told his daughter he wished to get out of the machine and stretch and the girl stopped the car. As he reentered the car, Mr. Martin fainted.
According to Marguerite Martin, her father recently spent 20 days in the psychopathic hospital, the family believing a fall at the sugar factory in Eaton had caused the injuries to his head. Believing he had suffered another attack of illness, due to this cause, Miss Martin turned around and hurried back to Denver. At her arrival, physicians said Martin was dead and probably had died shortly after getting back into the car.
During the hurried ride to Denver, Mrs. Belle Martin, wife of James O. Martin, had received word her husband had been killed in an automobile accident. She hurried to police station and while she questioned officers about accidents near Denver, the captain picked up the telephone and received a report from the hospital of Martin's death.
Mr. Martin and his family lived in Eaton for a time this fall and for about a week, at the opening of the campaign, he worked at the Eaton sugar factory as an engineer. He became ill at Eaton and was taken to Denver. He had previously worked on the J. Fred Roberts road crew. His son, Donald Martin, is with the sugar company now at Eaton. He has gone to Denver to remain until after his father's funeral.
