Mr. M. A. Boyer died January 8, 1897, at his home in Hiawatha, Kan., after a lingering illness caused by heart disease. Mr. Boyer was a resident of Cresco previous to migrating to Kansas, and was married in this city to Miss Cora Fobes, one of the favorites of Cresco society, who survives her husband.—Times.

Boyer.
The funeral of M. A. Boyer took place at his late residence Saturday afternoon at 4 o’clock. The services were conducted by Revs. Vernon and Richardson and the Masonic brethren. The jewellers of the city sent a beautiful flower piece and attended the funeral in a carriage. The Ladies Union sent a pretty flower design. On the house door was a wreath of lovely roses. Mr. Boyer was not an old or well-known citizen, but that he was a good man is most evident by his love for his wife and children. Almost his latest wish was that his affairs might be so managed as to provide liberally for them. Mr. Richardson particularly, advised and assisted by Samuel Bierer, has undertaken to see that his wishes are fulfilled- His life was insured for $4,500.—World, Hiawatha, Kansas.
