OBITUARY
Horace Crary Faville, was born in Mitchell county Iowa, December 17, 1859 and died in Chicago, Illinois. February 3, 1899, age 39 years 1 month and 14 days. He was baptized in infancy in the Congregational church in Mitchell and lived on the old homestead just north of town until grown to manhood.
He was married to Addie Whiting of Hampshire, Illinois. in 1884 and shortly afterward moved to California where resided for a number of years, and afterwards moved to New Mexico and for the past three years he has lived in Chicago. While living in California he had a very severe spell of sickness, which finally compelled him to undergo an operation for appendicitis while this operation was some three years ago, he never fully recovered from it. The last three years of his life have been years of constant suffering and pain in spite of which with manful courage, he kept at his work, until about three months ago, when he was compelled to go to a hospital.
It was found that the only way to save his life was by another operation, to which he submitted last Wednesday. He was fully confident he could not live, and his prophecy proved to be true.
Although fully conscious he was too weak to rally from the effects of the operation and passed away Friday afternoon.
The bright cheerful, genial boy that was known and loved by his many Mitchell friends, carried the same companionable qualities into his mature years. During his last sickness his friends in the office where he was employed, sent the kindest messages to him daily, and the members of his I.O.O.F. lodge in New Mexico, sent him many messages of comfort and cheer. Truly he was one whose faith was made perfect through suffering.
Almost the last words were "Lord have mercy on my soul and forgive all my sins" And then his mother who had been his companion and watcher all these many weeks, took him by the hand and went with him down into the shadow of the great valley, his face lighted up and he said,"mother I am not afraid to die, good bye, and he past through the gates into the eternal city.
The remains came on the one o'clock train and were met by many friends and relatives. The funeral was held in the Congregational church the sermon was by the pastor Rev. A. W. McNeel from the text. "Not for that we would be unclothed upon" 2d Cor.5-4. The unclothing, the laying aside, the leaving all, that death brings compared to the being" clothed upon," that the life in Christ brings us in his glory. The songs that were sung were, "By cool Siloam's shady rill," Boatman row me over the stream." The bearers were friends of his childhood days, George and Ed Stokes, S. D. Steavens, John Bamford, O.D. Tibbets, Levi Wiley.
The flowers were many and beautiful, one of the number was a pillow with the Odd Fellows emblems on and was from his lodge and a harp in memory of his musical talent was from the boys in the office where he worked. Friends who knew him here say he was such a help in the music of his church. Some of the friends from abroad were Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Faville of Chicago, father and mother, Alfred S. Faville, Plymouth Ia., brother, F. E. Faville, Storm Lake Ia., Bro,. Rev. and Mrs. T. W. Thruston, Albert Lea Minn., Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Thurston,Mandan N.D., George Allen , Plymouth Ia.,and some of those from Osage were Col. J. H.Sweney, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Dailey, F. A. Scofield and son, Herbert, Ed Hitchcock, J.L. and L. P. Tibbets. He is at rest, and mother and father and brothers await the call to the reunion above.
