SAD DEATH

Stanley Frazey, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Frazey, of Cantril, died at the hospital in Kirksville, Mo., Tuesday at 12:55 a.m. It will be remembered that the young man met with an accident while harvesting in Kansas in which his spine was so severely inquired [sic] as to cause partial paralysis. His death is a peculiarly sad one. Cut down in his useful young manhood when on his way home to family and friends after an absence of four years in the west, makes the afflication [sic] very, very hard to bear by those of kin.

The remains of Mr. Frazey were brought to the old home place near Upton yesterday and from the place of his birth the last sad rites will be held tomorrow at 11 o'clock.

We hope to have an obituary of the deceased in next week's issue of the Tribune.

(Photocopy of this obit found on page 170 of Obit Book "A" of the Van Buren County Genealogical Society's collection at the Keosauqua Public Library in Dec 2000. Name of newspaper and date of obit not given.)

I am NOT related and am posting this obit for those who may find this person in their family history.
