Isaac Hutchinson Dead
Isaac
[Brown] Hutchinson was born in
Brownsville, Pennsylvania, on February 16, 1836, and died at his home in North
Bedford on Thursday morning, September 12, from cancer of the stomach. He has
been ill for the past year, but had only been bedfast for the past eight weeks,
and while all that could possibly be done was done nothing could stay the
ravages of the dread disease.
At
the age of six years he left his Pennsylvania home with his parents and moved
to Clay Lick, Ohio. While living in Ohio he was united in marriage to Miss
Samantha [Nancy] Leddick, on May
23, 1861, and the following year they moved to Siam, Iowa. After several years
residence there they moved to Illinois, where they remained a year and then
returned to Iowa, buying a farm a mile and a half north of Siam, and this
continued to be their residence until they moved to Bedford six years ago.
Seven children were born to this happy couple, six of whom still live. They are Mrs. Martha Clayton, Wisner,
Neb; Mrs. Mary Hosman,
Bedford; John A. [lbert], Siam; Mrs. Rebecca Hosman, Siam; Isaac B.[rown], Siam; Mrs. Anna McFarland, Siam; Charles W. died in1865. Aside from the children and an aged
and heart broken wife he also leaves several brothers and sisters to mourn his
loss. They are Wilse, John and Carl,
of Horton, Kas; Samuel, of
Kansas City; Abraham, of
Villisca; Mrs. Mary Hankins and Mrs. Melinda Burnham, of
New Market, and Mrs. Dillie Bramble,
of Thayer, Mo.
The
deceased first became a Mason at Siam and when he moved here he transferred his
allegiance to the local lodge, which had charge of the ceremonies at the
cemetery at Siam where the burial was held on Sunday forenoon. Rev Dunlavy, of
Gravity, conducted the funeral services at the church at Siam. All the
relatives named, except the brother, Abraham, at Villisca, were in attendance at the funeral,
and also a cousin, Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Brown, of Pacific Junction, Iowa. The sympathy of all
goes out to the bereaved ones in their loss of an affectionate husband.

ever been a faithful follower of the Master though in later years she could not
always go to services, she never forgot to seek His message to her, by reading
the Bible every day. In her devotion to God and Christian life she has left one
of the most precious heritages one can leave to their children.
She

loved ones together here on earth, but rejoice that with her it is the entering
into the fuller life and a home in that better country where she will wait for

Obituary W. C.
McGinnis
W.
C. McGinnis passed away at his
home in Bedford, Thursday morning, January 31. The funeral services were held
Saturday afternoon from the Baptist church conducted by Rev. C. C. Hatcher.
Interment was made in the Fairview cemetery.
Wm.
C. [ornelius] McGinnis [McGinness] first saw the light of day on Dec. 14, 1858,
near New Market, Taylor County, Iowa.
Yielded
up the struggle for supremacy against the angel of death at his home in East
Bedford Thursday morning January 31, 1918 at 1:45 o'clock.
Shortly
after the birth of the new [year] the weary traveler entered the portals of the
Holy City at the command of the loving Captain. Thus a brave soldier was
mustered out of a most heroic fight, to be decorated with the robe and the
crown.
When
but about one year of age deceased was taken with his father's family to reside
near Maryville, Mo. Here he was married to Miss Malissa Endsley on Dec. 23, 1877.
Together
they came again to Taylor County and to Bedford, where ever since he has
figured in the affairs of community life. His time was largely devoted to
community and county life and to stock raising and farming. He was two times
sheriff of Taylor County and a number of years deputy county sheriff.
There
were born to Mr. and Mrs. McGinnis [McGinness], four children, Mrs. Maude Fine, Bedford; Mrs. Bertha Ball, Denver, Colo.; Geo. McGinnis [McGinness], Wathena, Kansas; Mrs. Gladys Sanburn [Sanborn], Greeley, Colo. There are three grandchildren, Billy
Fine, Paul and Imogene
McGinnis [McGinness]. One sister, Mrs. Ashford, Maryville, Mo. ;
a brother, Jim McGinnis [McGinness],
Maryville; Dennis and Denver McGinnis [McGinness], Pickering, Mo., and stepmother, Mrs. Nancy
McGinnis [McGinness], Pickering.
A
number of years ago, during the pastorate of Rev. Scott, Bro. McGinnis [McGinness] professed faith in his savior and became identified in membership
with this first Baptist church of Bedford. The course of his spiritual career
has had its ups and downs its ins and outs.
Two
years ago he renewed his covenant vows to the church and his Master, in his
renewed devotion faced a career of suffering and deprivation through which he
passed with a confidence in a loving Master and a faith supreme that all his
suffering did not shake.
He
drank deep in the closing months of his life from God's book and found
pleasures in talking of a saviour's love and grace, of times singing when alone
the songs of comfort.
To
his pastor and to others he spoke of the coming transition with a calmness and
assurance. Aside from the separation from loved ones, he bespoke no fear or
regret in making the change.
In
deep gratitude to a saviour who comes and tarries with those who trust Him, and
with regret that he was not permitted to live longer to do something for His
Saviour, he lay down in the slumbers of death to awaken in the land of the
"Sweet Bye and Bye," to be free from the pains and suffering of this
world, and to await our coming bye and bye.
May his saviour comfort
you that you forget not that his "God will take care of you."

A Good Woman Has Left
Us
Sarah
Sabina Ramsey [Ramsay] of near Siam, Taylor county, Iowa, was born
October 17, 1860, near Muscatine, Ind. [Iowa], passed from this life Oct. 13,
1923 at The Sisters Hospital in St. Joseph, Mo., age 62 years, 11 months and 26
days.
On
October 28th, 1880, she was united in marriage to Francis Marion
Manley. To this union were born
six children: Elza J. [onathan] and Grover C. [leveland] both of near Siam, Mrs. Mary [Isabel] Weingarth of Bedford, Ia.; Mrs. Golda [Pearl] Cade of Lincoln, Neb.; Silas H. [arold], at home, and Walter S. [ilvester], who preceded her in death five years ago.
Early
in life she united with the Church of Christ at Siam where she remained a true
member and faithful worker unto her death.
She
leaves to mourn her departure, her husband, five children, four grandchildren,
one sister Mrs. Mary Landen of
near Siam and also a host of other relatives and friends.
Mrs.
Manley lived a consistent
Christian life, a kind and loving wife and mother, in every deed trying to do
her best, and the memory of her deeds will hover as a spirit over all who are
left to mourn her demise. She was known in the community as one always ready to
do the Christian part whenever the occasion presented itself. She was quiet and
modest in manner; as a neighbor she was kind and obliging; as a mother she was
ever ready with a word of praise when kindliness was shown her. So, we are but
voicing the sentiments of all who knew her, when we say that in her departure,
the community in which she lived the greater part of her life has lost a
valuable neighbor and friend.
Not for the dead in Christ, we
weep,
Those sorrows now are o'er.
The sea is calm, the tempest past,
On that Eternal Shore.
Their peace is sealed, their rest
is sure,
Within that better home.
Awhile we weep and linger here,
Then follow to the tomb.
Yet we shall meet again in peace
To sing the song of festal joy,
Where none shall bid our gladness
cease,
And none our fellowship destroy
Dearest mother, thou hast left us.
We our loss do deeply feel,
But 'tis God that hath bereft us,
Funeral
services were held at the Christian church in Siam, on Tuesday, October 16th,
conducted by Rev. Randall, after which the body was laid to rest in the Siam
cemetery.
