News was received Tuesday evening of the death of Robert Cousins at Seattle, Wash. Ter., last week. Mr. Cousins settled in Center township in’67 of ’68, opening a farm on section twenty, where he resided until his removal to the Pacific coast in 1881. He had been sick for two months and was removed from his home on Lopez Island, to Seattle, where better medical treatment could be obtained. Mr. Cousins was hale and hearty when here on a visit in 1883. Two of his children are residents of this county, Mrs. Nicholson and Mrs. West. (Northern Vindicator, Estherville, IA, November 30, 1888)
