WILTON—Dec. 5, 1883. ------ T. E. Ingham died at his home in Wilton about 12 o’clock Monday night from the effects of an overdose of chloral and bromide of potassium. It appears from the different accounts published that the general impression is that he committed suicide, but his immediate friends and family do not think such is the case, from his actions just before taking the narcotic, which he was in the habit of taking to quiet his nerves. On coming home Monday evening, Mr. Ingham ate his supper as usual, then took a dose of quinine and went to his room. The quinine not (can’t read the next few words). Mr. Ingham (can’t read next line—paper was folded underneath when they copied it) mide of potassium to bring sleep, and took an overdose, which caused his death soon after. The funeral took place at the residence at 2 o’clock Wednesday afternoon, the Rev. Mr. Schermer, M. E. pastor, at this place, conducting the services. A large number of friends of the family were present. In death, Mr. Ingham looked as he was known to his friends when he was himself and not under the influence of liquor. It is a wasted life of a noble man, of brilliant intellect, capable of doing much good, sent to an early grave by the demon alcohol. ---- “THE MUSCATINE DAILY JOURNAL”, Muscatine, Iowa, Friday, Dec. 7, 1883, page 3------ Wilton Review: It is unnecessary for us to make any comment on the life or career of Mr. Ingham. When he was “Ned” Ingham he was one of the best hearted, freest, bravest, brightest and most capable men with whom it was ever our pleasure to become acquainted. But, he is gone, and it will be the anxious prayer of all who knew him, that in the long hereafter, his great soul may find the peace and quiet for which it so vainly sought, while wandering through the troubles and devious labyrinths of the life he so peacefully quitted at that one midnight hour. Funeral services were conducted at the family residence yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon. Sermon by Rev. E. L. Schreiner. Taking the facts and circumstances into consideration there is no evidence that Mr. Ingham purposely took the drug which ended his life.

DEATH OF MRS. JOHN IRELAND---Took Place Near Atalissa Sunday Morning, Funeral Tuesday.----Atalissa, July 8.----In the quiet of the Sabbath morning, July 7, at 8 o'clock at her home near Atalissa, occurred the death of Mrs. Clara Ireland, wife of John Ireland. She was taken sick June 12, but had so far recovered as to be able to attend church June 30. She suffered a relapse and although she seemed better on Thursday and her many friends seemed much encouraged she soon grew worse and inflammatory rheumatism set in, which went suddenly to her heart, causing her death. The funeral will be at 1 o'clock Tuesday from the Christian church.-------"THE MUSCATINE JOURNAL", Muscatine, Iowa, Friday, July 19, 1901, page 7----IN MEMORY.-----A Tribute Paid to the Memory of Mrs. Clara L. Ireland.----Mrs. Clara L. Ireland was a devoted member of the Christian church and although living on a farm she faithfully attended all services when it was possible. As teacher of the Bible class in the Sunday school she was capable, earnest, and enthusiastic; as a worker in the C. E., the Ladies' Aid Society and the choir she was full of zeal and very faithful; but it was the missionary society that had the greatest share of heart. Of this she was president and so filled with the great work of missions that her enthusiasm reached out to others, interesting them in spreading the gospel. In the church her place will be hard to fill, energetic, able, willing workers are no place too many. As they meet together and their hearts are softened as they miss her, may they forget her faults and follow her as she followed Christ. In the social circle she will be greatly missed also, but in the home has the blow fallen the hardest. She was a most faithful wife and mother, ever ready with her wise counsel and strong courage to cheer and encourage, ever striving to lead her devoted husband and little son to a higher, better life. For her boy she had set a high ideal, saying sometimes that she would think her life well spent and no sacrifice too great if she could lead him to be a noble Christian man. To these the world will ever seem brighter because she has lived in it and Heaven seem nearer because she is waiting for them there. A Friend.

Atalissa is being severely stricken at the dawn of the new year, in the loss of her prominent citizens. Hardly were the remains of Capt. Lundy laid to rest on Saturday, than another old settler, Lemuel L. Ireland, closed his eyes in death, dying near evening, and the following day the spirit of Mr. Charles Dungan, equally respected for his long and honorable life in Atalissa, took its departure from earth. The funeral of both these old citizens took place on yesterday within an hour of each other. Mr. Ireland was a soldier in the Mexican War, and located his claim near Atalissa, which would make him one of the oldest residents of the county. His age was 64. Mr. Dungan was about 77.

Mrs. Anna W. Irwin, daughter of Phineas and Cynthia Buckman, was born in Baltimore county, Maryland, April 2, 1855, and died June 10, 1907. --- The family came to Iowa in June, 1855, and while their house was being built, they boarded at Benjamin Smith's, then moved to the farm where in 1891 the father and in 1901 the mother died, and where Anna was married to J. Allen Irwin Jan. 4, 1877, and has since lived. To them four children were born, Edith who died in infancy, and Edna C., Oliver and Wilma at home. --- On May 29th Mrs. Irwin was taken to the Homeopathic hospital in Iowa City, where it was necessary to perform an operation, which in every way seemed to be doing well, but her health was far more impaired than even her physician imagined, and death came to her at 2 o'clock p.m. Monday, June 10. --- It seems to us who only see through a glass darkly that this faithful wife and mother could not be spared. She seemed so necessary to her husband and childer who had all learned to lean upon her whose wise counsel and bright sunny ways made the home to them the most attractive spot on earth. And then she loved her home and was always there, with a cheerful, welcoming smile to everyone. --- But for an illness in the winter she had apparently been in her usual health for some time, being about her work, going in and out in her places and there was no outward sign that disease had claimed her for its victim. --- The funeral services were held at the home Wednesday at 1:30 o'clock, Rev. Geo. Furniss of West Liberty preaching the sermon. Many and beautiful flowers adorned the casket, the gift of kind friends and neighbors, who all watched the telephone for days, anxious for word from the loved one by whose side the husband watched until the end came. To these the husband's heart goes out in deepest gratitude for their kind, thoughtful help and sympathy and their many manifestations of the esteem in which they held the deceased. --- Since childhood we have known Anna. All through our school days we were together,and yet what can we say that will express our regard for her? Of a quiet, retiring disposition, she was dearest to those who knew her best. And in our class of "72" meetings, of which she was a member, and in which she took so much pleasure she was a general favorite. We all knew that every word she spoke was sincere and true and hers was a friendship to be trusted. Without ostentation or display she had what kings might well covet:
"A herat contented, a mind at ease,
Loved simple pleasures that alway please,
A heart that was large enough to enfold
All men as brothers which are better than gold."
Besides her family at home she lefted one sister, Mrs. A. A. Aikins of West Liberty, and two brothers, Charles E. Buckman of West Liberty, and Oliver Buckman of Napa City, California. ------------------- West Liberty Index, June 13, 1907 --------------- The funeral service was held at the home on the 12th inst., conducted by Rev. Geo. Furniss, the intermeut taking place at the old cemetery north of West Liberty.
