DIED-

Elijah Edwards, an old pioneer who settled a mile and a half west of town in an early day and who has been residing there ever since, passed quietly away on Monday eve of last week. He was interred in the grave yard midway between here and Wyoming on Wednesday following. The funeral services took place at the home, Rev. John Said of near Iron Hills officiating. Mr. Edwards leaves a host of relatives and friends behind to mourn his loss. Thus the pioneers of this locality are fading away, one by one. He was an exemplary citizen and will be sadly missed. His wife precede him three or four years. The bereaved friends have the sympathy of the entire community.
