Miss Lizzie Keenan died April 4, 1886, aged 16 years, 5 months and 11 days. Quick Consumption seized on her delicate form, and she sank into her last long sleep. She was sick only two weeks. Her death was daily expected during the last week of her illness. A happy household is grief stricken and gloom sits enthroned where happiness reigned. It was hard for the father and mother, sister and brothers to stand by her dying bed and see her last breath. She was so kind and good to all and won every heart by her gentle and lady-like deportment. She was prepared for the summons and death to her had no terrors. Her trust was in him who conquered death and the grave. Her funeral sermon was preached by Rev. Fr. Pembroke at St. Patrick's church, in Maryville, on Monday forenoon. Then her remains were laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery, one mile south of town. During her illness she was cheered by her many friends and all that love and kindness could do was done. At times she suffered terribly but bore all with patience. She is now at rest in the land where sickness, sorrow and death are no more.
'Tis sad to think that death has closed
Her eyelids in their last repose,
And this summer's cool breeze shall gently
Wave
The green grass oe'r Dear Lizzie's grave. M. J. S.

We are sad to chronicle the death of Mr. and Mrs. Wert Kempton's daughter, Katie, aged nine years and two months, which occurred last Sabbath morning about seven o'clock. This death is all the more sad to them as it is about two years since they lost their youngest daughter, Marcella. Katie was a very bright, sweet and pleasant child. She was sick only about one week. They fever (typhus malaria) set in from the very first, in worst form. Notwithstanding the most careful and vigorous treatment of the physician the fever made rapid progress which soon caused death to ensue. Let death come when it will we meet it with sadness. Still the Christian home may rejoice in the blessed hope of a glorious resurrection. The funeral services took place at their home on Monday ten o'clock, A.M. and the remains were buried in the Smock grave yard.

Charley was a bright boy and a great favorite with his playmates at school and the idol of his parents, brothers and sisters, he being the babe and the 12th child. Little Charley's sufferings were very severe, malarial fever, assuming a typhoid form. All that human kindness and skill could do was done but of no avail. On Wednesday, Sept. 29, at 2 o'clock, his spirit took its flight, and his little form was forever stilled in death. On Thursday afternoon his remains were followed to the White Cloud Baptist church by a large number of sorrowing friends and laid by the side of his little brother Jacob. Rev. Sapp preached the funeral to a sorrowing assembly. O, how sad was the last look on that little face, cold in death. Never have we seen such sorrowing as we saw there.

On Wednesday, March 8, Mrs. Jno. Kraibiehl [Kreibiehl]l of North Hopkins, fell down the cellar stairs and broke the large bone of her ankle. She was alone at the time and lay helpless for several hours when one of the neighbors happened in and at once summoned medical aid.

Death of A Pioneer
With regret the gazette this morning announces the death of Owen Langan, which occurred at 3 o'clock yesterday morning, September 10th. He was born in 1805 in County Sligo, Ireland and came to this country at the age of 25, landing in New York. In 1833 he was married to Catherine Fisher, a most estimable woman, who still survives him. Six children were born of their union, and they are all worthy and highly esteemed. Mr. Langan emigrated from New York to Missouri in 1844, living in St. Louis until the spring of 1849, when he moved to St. Joseph, where he resided until the time of his death. On January 10th, last, the aged couple celebrated their golden wedding and on that occasion the house was filled with their friends, who made many useful presents and expressed the earnest wish that they might live to celebrate many anniversaries. Mr. Langan was an honest, upright and industrious man and commanded the respect and esteem of all with whom he came in contact. His death is deplored by all who knew him. Mr. Langan had been ill only a few days, having been in good spirits at the time of the marriage of his daughter, Kate, to Mr. Wm. Connelly, which occurred a week ago. Mr. and Mrs. Connelly arrived last night from their wedding trip to attend the funeral.

Memoir of Grandma Lewis.
Mrs. Uzillah Lewis, nee Maberry, died in this city at four o'clock last Sunday morning, January 3d, 1886, after an illness of about thirty-six hours and of intense suffering, aged 75 years, 5 months and 22 days.
Grandma Lewis, as she was familiarly called by all who knew her, will be remembered by all the older citizens of this city and by many whose citizenship is more recent, as a tailoress and one of God's noble poor. Her industry and economy was remarkable and though very feeble for the past few years and a great sufferer, yet the only complaint ever heard from her lips was, "oh, if I had plenty of work to do, I could get along." It is said that Burns' Elegy, "Man was made to Mourn," was prompted by an old man seeking work. Could the poet have known the history of this lonely woman he would have had a subject to inspire his loftiest sentiment in painting the sorrows of earth and yet, his words seem almost prophetic when he turns to the brighter view of humanity and adds:
"The poor, oppressed, honest man
Had never, sure, been born,
Had there not been some recompense
To comfort those that mourn.
O death! The poor man's dearest friend,
The kindest and the best,
Welcome the hour my aged limbs
Are laid with thee at rest!
The great, the wealthy fear thy blow,
From pomp and pleasure torn;
But, oh, a blest relief to those
That weary-laden mourn."
Grandma Lewis had neither complaints nor fault with this life, or of the life to come, but was a patient toiler, an honest woman, and a worthy subject of charity; and though, in great measure, dependent on charity for her support, yet, never in any sense a beggar.
Unfortunately, but little of her early and past history is at present known. Her husband, Causby M. Lewis, died May 15, 1859, at which time her youngest children, Sarah and Catharine, twins, were but 3 years, 3 months and 13 days old. Her next youngest children, Andrew J. and George W., also twins, were 9 years, 6 months and 21 days old. None of her family was present at her sickness or her burial and their whereabouts are wholly unknown to the writer, except her son Charles W., who recently wrote his mother from Burlingame, Kansas, the letter coming too late to be read by her intelligently. A telegram was sent him, but no word came in return.
In the family bible was found in the hand writing of Charles W., above mentioned, the following family register, which entirely omits any reference to birth place:
"Causby M. Lewis was born October 15, A. D. 1801.
Uzillah Maberry was born July 11, A. D. 1810.
James M. Lewis was born June 3, A. D. 1828.
John J. Lewis was born May 29, A. D. 1832.
Charles W. Lewis was born May 12, A. D. 1837.
Andrew J. and George W. Lewis were born February 2, A. D. 1846.
Sarah and Catharine Lewis were born February 2, A. D. 1846.
Causby M. Lewis and Uzillah Maberry were married September 9, A. D. 1827.
Sarah Lewis died January 27, A. D. 1848.
John J. Lewis died May 11, A. D. 1849.
Causby M. Lewis died May 15, A. D. 1849.
Catharine Lewis died March 13, A. D. 1851.
Whether the above contains the names of all her children the writer is unable to learn, but the circumstances under which the above facts were preserved make it of sufficient importance to thus further preserve it, that it may fall into the hands of some person competent to write a more complete memoir and history, which would be read with interest by many in Nodaway county.
From a printed memorial notice of James M. Lewis, it is learned that he died May 29, 1862, having resigned his commission a short time before, as 1st Lieu. In Co. A, 22 Regiment of Indiana Volunteers in the late Civil war. Hence it follows that the above register was incomplete when written, or written more than twenty years ago. Mrs. Lewis was not without friends. She was well known and respected. She commenced the use of opium medicinally about or over twenty years ago and the use of it became a habit she could not shake off and the amount she used latterly was wonderful. She made no concealment of its use and regarded it as an absolute necessity, without which she could not work and endure her physical suffering.
From some months past she has been living in a house of Mr. Davey's with Mr. Griffith and his family. Mr. Griffith's were very kind to her. She worked at the sewing machine nearly all of New Year's day, but in the evening had to quit and take to her bed on account of a severe pain in her back. She become sick at the stomach shortly after. She lost the power to converse Saturday afternoon and died Sunday morning as above stated.
She has gone to her rest and reward, and many will bless her memory.
The day of her funeral was one of severe storm, yet a number of kindly friends gathered at her residence, when Rev. A. C. Gann, in the absence of her pastor, Rev. T. A. Canady, conducted the services, after which her body was deposited in Miriam cemetery.

S. H. Lutes, Honored Resident of Vinton, Dies at Age of 77
VINTON, Ia., Feb. 3. – Vinton has lost one of her best and most highly respected citizens in the death of S.[amuel] H. [alstead] Lutes. Mr. Lutes died Saturday forenoon. He had not been feeling well for several weeks but was not confined to the house until Tuesday of last week. His death was due to the infirmities of old age, together with heart trouble. Mr. Lutes was 77 years of age and was a native of Missouri. At the breaking out of the Civil war the sentiment for the southern confederacy was so strong in the community in which he lived that no forces were assembled for the cause of the union. So determined was Mr. Lutes to serve his country that he rode on horseback 150 miles to Omaha where he enlisted in the second Nebraska infantry and he served with his company with distinction until the close of the war and continued in the service of his country for some months thereafter in guarding traffic thru the western country. Mr. Lutes always interested himself in the reunions of the old soldiers. At one time he served his county in Missouri as county treasurer. He served two terms as county coroner of Benton county and was janitor of the courthouse for some 15 years. He holds the distinction of having served as court bailiff in this county for 54 consecutive terms. He was a most faithful official in every place where he was called to serve. Deceased was married twice, the last time to Miss Arminta Moss, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Moss. One daughter was born to Mr. Lutes by his first marriage, Miss Della, who is now county superintendent of this county and two sons by his second wife, Niel [Neil], who is instructor in the public schools of Freeport, Ill. and Howard, a lieutenant in the army. Both sons came home to attend the funeral today. Mr. Lutes was a staunch Republican and always took a great interest in the councils of his party. He perhaps had as many friends and as few enemies as any person in town.
