TUCKER- In Cedar Township, August 2, 1884,
Nathaniel Tucker, aged eighty-nine years.
Mr. Tucker was one of the oldest pioneers in Mitchell County. He pre-empted the farm on which he died, as early as 1854--thirty years ago. He married Mary Parker sixty-six years ago in 1818.
Ten children were born to them, seven sons are now living and attended their father's funeral. The wife and mother died twenty-four years ago, in 1860. A younger brother of Mr. Tucker resides in Osage, now an aged man, well known to our citizens, and in feeble health.
Nathaniel Tucker has lived a blameless and useful life, respected and beloved at home and by his neighbors, to men of such worth we owe the prosperity of the county. They have transformed an Indian wilderness into the fruitful fields of civilzation and given us similing farms where there were once ravenous wolves and desolate snows.
A large concourse of people listed to an appropriate funeral sermon by Rev. A. A. Thayer from the text, "We walk by faith not by sight".
