Old Time Resi dent of Murdock Passes Away Abe Long, Resident of Nebraska Since 1866 Is Called to Last Reward Funeral at Murdock Mr. Abe Long was born near Mt. Pleasant, la., April 6th, 1850, and peacefully departed "this life at his farm home near Murdock. Neb., Feb. 8, 1929. after a pilgrimage of 7S years, 10 months and two days. The cause of his death was pernicious anemia. In his youth, the deceased attend ed the public schools at his home vicinity and reared and nurtured in God's word by parental instruction and the Bible school which he at tended regular and faithfully. When still a boy of 16 years of age, his parents came westward and crossed the Missouri river near Plattsmouth, Neb., Oct. 12, 1866 at which place they made their home. I On the Sth day of Feh. 1885, the de j paried was very happily married to Miss Hannsh Sanders, his now sor rowing companion and in the spring of 18S7, he with his family moved to the f arm home near Murdock where he lived until the final call. This union was blessed with two chil dren, one son, Charles, and one daughter, Olive, who preceded the father in death in July 1927. Many years ago, the deceased was soundly converted to God and Im mediately thereafter joined the M. E. church and endeavored to live a Christian life until death. His Chris tian faith and profession was ever encouraging to his own family and to his many friends and was a staunch supporter of his faith in word and deed and person while his health permitted him. During his long ill ness, he was ever patient and resign ed to the will of God. never repined nor murmured and was prepared to meet his God whem he loved and served to the end. His end was peace. Ac a father, he was kind, loving, providing and always interested in his family's welfare, in temporal and spiritual things. As a neighbor, he was assisting, always ready to lend !a helping hand when he saw a friend in need. His place in the home will be greatly missed and the vacant chair can never be filled again, but his cheery disposition will not be forgotten. He leaves to mourn his death, his dear companion, one son. Charles of Murdock; one brother of Vero Beach . . , ' lilt nua.
