( obituary )
SEVERAL OLD CITIZENS HAVE RECENTLY BEEN CALLED TO THE UNKNO WN.
The funeral of Noble Douglass was held from the family hom e last Saturday at 2:00 o'clock p.m., conducted by Rev. F . B. Palmer, pastor of the Baptist Church, of which the dec eased was a veteran member. Many old friends and neighbor s paid there respectst with thier presence, after which th e reamins where laid to rest.
Noble Douglass was born near Brownstone, Indiana, May 12 , 1818, and at the time of his death was likley the oldes t person in Lucas County. He came to the state in 1853, set tling on his farm just south east of Chariton, on which h e resided until about 10 years ago, and since the death o f his companion has made his home with his daughter, Mrs. J . M. Kneeland. He had been twice married and was the fathe r of 9 children, five of whom survive him, Ed Douglass of H arper, Washington, who was not present at the funeral, Mrs . Mary Davidson, Mrs. Laura Niswender, Mrs. J. M. Kneeland , and Miss Tessie Douglass. There are also ninten grandchil dren and thirteen great grand children. Mr. Douglass whil e never a rugged man had great tenacity of life and was ver y active, seldom complaining of physical ills. The fatal di sease was caused by a complication following Lagrippe. Nobl e Douglass was a man of strong Character, just in all his d ealings with his fellow men and was revered throughout a l ong life of usefullness, and in his passing those who kne w him best silently pay tribute and retain him in thier mem ories. His span of life was long; his years where tilled wi th good deeds; his reward is certain.
