KINGSLEY: (Special Correspondence)
Died, Tuesday, December 29, 1891, Mr. Charles Bullis. Mr. Bullis had been in poor health for sometime and being quite advanced in years, he had not the constitution to withstand serious illness. Mr. Bullis was one of the pioneers of this county having located near where the town of Quorn was afterwards built. For many years he was without easy access to towns or railroads. Like a mighty oak that stood the storms of many years, he has had to yield at last to the relentless hand of time. The funeral occurred Wednesday at the M.E. church, conducted by Rev. Yerger. Everybody sympathizes with the afflicted family.
