Robert S. Buckley, one of Monroe and Jasper County’s most highly respected citizens, died at his home in north Monroe, Aug. 23, 1902, after months of great suffering from rheumatism. Mr. Buckley was one of the leading Democrats of this county for years and was prominent in his party. He was an honored member of the order of Odd Fellows. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock from the Baptist Church, Rev. Stiles of Reasnor conducting the funeral services, after which the burial service of the I. O. O.
