From Story County Watchman March 3, 1899

Tuesday night Robert Kelley died at his residence just north of this city from disease of the bladder. He has not been sick long but the case was an aggravated one and an operation was resorted to but at such a late hour that it only delayed the end a few hours. The funeral will be held from the residence today. He was one of the first settlers of that section of the county and stood high in the esteem of his friends.
