Death of Mrs. Thompson
Mrs. Enoch Thompson, mother of Mrs. W. H. Wilson, passed away on
Wednesday morning about 5 o'clock. She has been ill and failing
for the past four weeks. She will be buried at Shenandoah
Thursday or Friday of this week.
Death of A.D. Richards
Augustus D. Richards has gone to his long home and the mourners
go about the streets. His years were almost three score and ten,
and during all the years of his life his home was on the farm
where he was born. His early history dates back to the real
pioneer days, and if there is such a thing as pride of ancestry
in Fremont county, Gus Richards is a man who could, without
question, claim his share. He was the son of Milton and Jane
Jackson Richards who settled here in 1846, in the days of the
Morman hegira, a few months before Iowa became a state, three
years before the organization of Fremont county and five years
before the birth of Sidney. Milton Richard was one of the big men
of his day and occupied a prominent place in the early history of
the county. He was first clerk of the district court and issued
the first marriage license when the county seat was at Austin. In
1851 his wife named the new county seat Sidney, in honor of her
old home at Sidney, Ohio, and the town was platted and modeled on
the lines of the Ohio town. The public and private life of Milton
Richards, the old pioneer, according to the records of the
historian and the testimony of those who knew him was of the
purest and best. Augustus Dolphus Richards was born four miles
south of Sidney, August 24, 1849, and died June 8, 1917, after a
lingering illness of nearly two years. On December 31, 1871, he
was united in marriage with Miss Mary E. Yates. To this union no
children were given, but three orphan boys, the youngest five
years of age were taken into their home and reared to manhood.
One now lives in Kansas City, two in Oklahoma, none being able to
get here to attend the funeral on account of the high waters.
When 17 years of age Mr. Richards made a profession of faith in
Christ and united with the Christian church at Sidney. He lived
until the end in the faith of the gospel and died in hope of its
glory. He was a man of honor, industrious, kind and sympathetic
to those in distress about him and the world has been enriched by
his life. Four sisters and one brother survive, namely, Milton
Richards who lives in Nebraska; Mrs. James Ray, Ottawa, Kansas;
Mrs. S. P. Cadle of Washington; Mrs. Frances Stephens and Mary
Story who live near Sidney. He also leaves a wife and numerous
other relatives to mourn his loss. The funeral services were held
on Sunday afternoon, June 10, at the Sidney Baptist church,
conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. P. Thomas, who paid a noble
tribute to the departed brother. The speaker said his
acquaintance with Mr. Richards, although of short duration, had
been an inspiration to him. He took the very appropriate and
suggestive text from Acts 11:24: "He was a good man."
Rev. Thomas told what it meant to be a good man. Some who are
called good by men are not good in the sight of God. To be good
man in the sight of God a man must be a believer in God and in
Jesus Christ, and not only a believer but also a man who obeys
and follows God's commandments and teachings. Although, on
account of the floods, the people east of the Nishnabotana could
not be present, the church was completely filled by the relatives
and old friends and neighbors. Interment was in the Sidney
cemetery, the services at the tomb being conducted by the I.O.O.
F., Mr. Richards having been a member of this organization for 25
years.
Mrs. Lucy Clayton
Mrs. Lucy Clayton died the latter part of last week at her home
near Grant City, Missouri. Mrs. Clayton before her second
marriage was known here as Mrs. Burdick, and in the early '80's
lived with her family in Prairie township five miles east of
Sidney. She was the mother of Nathan Burdick of Sidney and Judson
Burdick of Farragut. She was nearly 83 years of age and is
survived by four sons and one daughter. She has lived in Missouri
for 23 years.
ANOTHER POPULAR COUPLE MARRIED
Miss Ione Chantry and John D. Ross, Jr., United in Matrimony in
Sidney Last Thursday Evening
Oh, what is so rare as a day in June?
Then, if ever, come perfect days;
Then Heaven tries Earth, if it be in tune,
And over it gently her warm ear lays.
On Thursday evening, June 7, 1917, Miss Ione Virginia Chantry
was given in marriage to John D. Ross, Jr. It was upon one of
those rare June days which poets only can describe, which made a
most charming and suitable setting for our fair June bride. The
ceremony was performed at the home of the bride's father, A.L.
Chantry, and was attended by numerous relatives and friends of
the bride and groom, among whom were Hon. A. J. Chantry of
Malvern, the bride's grandfather, and Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Ross,
father and mother of the groom.
Other guests from out of town were
Mr. and Mrs. H.T. Beattle and children, of Malvern
Mrs. C. L. Ellis of Tabor
Mr. and Mrs. Forrest R. Chantry, of Malvern
Mrs.M.A. Chantry, Allen and Edith, of Omaha
Miss Ruth Chantry of Malvern
Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Farwell of near Shenandoah
Mr. and Mrs. Morton Graves, Ross, Lois of near Shenandoah
Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon Hurlbutt and son of Tabor
Mr. and Mrs. James Pullman of Randolph
Mrs. Allen Ross and daughter of Wyoming
Miss Josephine Ross, of near Shenandoah
Mr. and Mrs. L. O. Ross of near Shenandoah
Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Scott of near Shenandoah
Mr. and Mrs. John Thomas of near Shenandoah
Those present from Sidney were Rev. and Mrs. C. M. Ward, Mr. and
Mrs. I.P. Dixon, Miss Glenne Dixon, Miss Helen Waterman and Miss
Effie Crandal. The bride's two oldest brothers, Paul and Wendell,
could not be present, as they are engaged in their country's
service, one at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, the other in New York
bay. The rooms were artistically decorated in yellow and white.
The flowers used were yellow iris, and white bridal wreath. The
bride was charmingly dressed in a gown of white lace, and wore a
veil of white tulle which was the bridal veil of her aunt, Mrs.
Lillian Beattle, who was married 11 years ago, and which has been
worn on several like occasions in the family since that time. She
carried a beautiful bouquet of home grown white flowers. The
groom was handsomely attired in the conventional black. To the
strains of Mendelsshohn's wedding march, Miss Lois Graves, the
groom's niece, and Miss Ruth Chantry, cousin of the bride,
assisted by Joe and Archie Chantry, brothers of the bride,
entered and formed a ribbon aisle. Rev. C. M. Ward and the groom,
followed by Miss Jean Beattle as ring bearer, proceeded to an
arch of bridal wreath; then came the bride, attended by her
father. The beautiful and impressive ring ceremony was used.
Immediately following the ceremony, Miss Mildred Chantry,
accompanied by Miss Lillian Chantry, sisters of the bride, sang
"Because" after which a delightful two-course luncheon
was served by Mrs. Marjorie Harrison, Miss Eva Holloway, Miss Ida
Meyer and Miss Leona Watson. Amid congratulations and good byes
the happy couple left for a short wedding trip. They will make
their home at "The Elms", five miles northwest of
Shenandoah. The bride is the eldest daughter of A. L. Chantry of
Sidney, and the groom is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. J. D.
Ross of Walnut township, well known early settlers of Fremont
county. The numerous friends of both bride and groom wish them
much joy and happiness throughout all their days.

Otte - Liggett
The young people of Sidney and vicinity, and some of the older
ones with fun proclivities, had a lot of fun Monday, evening at
the expense of Frank Liggett and Mrs. Maude Otte, who the
participants in the charivari claimed had been married on June 9
at Nebraska City. Both Mr. Liggett and Mrs. Otte strenuously
denied the allegations and defied this "alligators",
but were compelled to bear the burden of the sport, nevertheless.
The instigators of the charivari claim to have proof beyond doubt
that the couple were married as aforesaid, their denial to the
contrary, notwithstanding, nevertheless and but, and want to make
them "come across" in some substantial manner with the
"treats". Both Mr. Liggett and Mrs. Otte are well and
favorably known in the community, and would and will and should
receive the best wishes of all in case they have or will or would
join their hearts and hands and fortunes for better or worse in
this sad and glad old world.

MILES H. INMAN IS SUDDENLY CALLED
Passed Away at His Home North of Thurman While at Work Monday
Morning.
Miles H. Inman died suddenly last Monday morning about 9 o'clock
from over exertion or heart trouble. He was in apparent good
health and was helping his son, Clyde, and others mow away hay in
the barn at his home with his son about two miles north of
Thurman. He sat down to rest for a minute and when next noticed
he was lying down and life had passed quietly and peacefully
away. The funeral services were held at Randolph on Wednesday at
2 p.m., conducted by Rev. C. H. Kindig of Thurman. Miles H. Inman
was born February 19, 1844 near Parkman Village, Geauga county,
Ohio, and passed away June 18, 1917, at the age of 73 years, 3
months and 29 days. At the age of 8 years he moved with his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Inman, to Dane county, Wisconsin. On
November 15, 1866, he was married to Maggie Philo of Lakeview,
Wisconsin, near which place they made their home until 1870, when
he with his family, moved to Fremont county, Iowa, where he has
since resided with the exception of one year spent in Nebraska
for his wife's health. To this union were born six children,
three dying in infancy. The remaining children are Frank D. of
Sioux City; Oscar S. of Pacific Junction; and Clyde H. of
Thurman, with whom he has made his for the past six years. Mr.
Inman lived in Randolph 11 years, where his wife died, January
14, 1908, after a lingering illness of 20 years. Miles, as he was
familiarly called, was known by nearly everyone, having bought
stock for years in Fremont, Page, and Mills counties. He was
loved and honored for his honest and upright dealings and counted
his friends by the hundreds. Although he was no affiliated with
any church, he has often expressed his faith in the divine being,
reading his bible a great deal, often reading it to his little
grandsons. Besides his children and grandchildren he leaves to
mourn his death four brothers and one sister, namely, Norton of
Blanche, Nebraska; M. and M. O. and Mrs. C. H. Fichter of
Randolph. After the funeral services, the burial was delayed a
few hours to await the arrival of Norton Inman of Blanche,
Nebraska, who came on the evening train.
