Nathan Arnold.
Nathan Arnold, who died at his
residence on the Arnold ranch north
west of O’Neill, last Thursday morn
ing, was born in Monroe, Missouri, on
July 3, 1885, and was thirty-three
years and three months old at the
time of his death.
In the spring of 1906 the family
came to this county and Nathan had
made his home here since that time
with the exception of two years that
he was employed in the stock yards ir
South Omaha. On May 29, 1912, he
was united in marriage to Miss Clara
Ball, who with one daughter, Mary
Estelle, his father and mother, Mr
and Mrs. L. W. Arnold and daughter
Miss Gladys, of this city, are left tc
mourn the death of a kind and af
’»*" fectionate husband, father, son and
brother.
Deceased had been engaged in the
stock business with his father for the
past eight years and the firm oi
Arnold & Son is recognized as one oi
the largest dealers in live stock ir
this section of the state. Besides
their large ranch northwest of this
city they have large feed yards ir
Neligh and last year handled aboul
$200,000 worth of cattle, and in look
ing after this immense business
Nathan was the right hand of his
father. Their association was sc
close that they were more like
brothers than father and son. Nathan
was an energetic and industrious
young man and by his close applica
tion to business was rapidly forging
to the front in his chosen line of
work. He had hundreds of friends
scattered through Holt and adjoining
counties and it was a shock to his
many acquaintances last Thursday to
learn of his death, as he was ill but a
few days being taken with Spanish
Influenza, which developed into pneu
monia and although all that medical
skill and loving hearts and hands
could do was done he passed to the
great beyond.
The funeral was held last Sunday
afternoon, the remains being interred
in the cemetery at Spencer, Rev.
Fagan, Methodist pastor at Page, an
old time friend of the deceased, of
ficiating. The funeral was a large
one, many people going out from this
city to pay their last respects to the
memory of their departed friend.

Death of An Old Pioneer.
Thomas J. Gallagher died at the
i home of his son, Thomas Gallagher,
■ eight miles north of this city, at 3:45
i this morning, after an illness of eight
• months, at the age of seventy-four
, years, four months and ten days. The
, funeral will be held Saturday morn
i ing, leaving the residence of his son
■ at 9:15.
I Deceased was born in Ireland on
June 7, 1844. As soon as he reached
! manhood’s estate he came to America
: and located at Pittsburg, Pennsylva
' nia, where he resided until he came
' to this county in the summer of 1875,
i the year after the colony was located
by General O’Neill, and took a home
, stead three and a half miles north of
i this city where he lived until the
; kpirng of 1883 when he sold his farm
and located on another ten miles
i northwest of this city, where he lived
i until he retired about eight years ago
■ and moved to this city where he re
! mained until after he suffered a
paralytic stroke last February, when
he was taken to the home of his son
north of O’Neill, where he lived up to
the time of his death.
In January, 1866, he was united in
marriage to Miss Mary Swift, who
passed away in 1882. He leaves three
sons and two daughters to mourn the
death of a kind and loving father. The
children are: Mrs. James O’Donnell,
Atkinson; John, Thomas and Warren
Sparks, and Mrs. James Connolly,
O’Neill.
Mr. Gallagher was one of the early
band of pioneers that came to this
county and endured all the hardships
and privations of frontier life to in
sure a home and happiness for those
he loved. He encountered more than
his share of adversity, being deprived
of his loving companion and left with
a family of small children, but he
bore up bravely through it all and
by thrift and unceasing labor built up
a competency and was able to spend
his declining years happy in the
thought that fortune had finally
smiled upon him. He was a good
citizen and while he had been bedfast
many months was able to retain all
his faculties up to the last and he
passed . to the beyond surrounded by
his loved ones, contented and ready for
the call.
Dies on the Field of Honor.
Gaylor Simonson, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Loren Simonson, living fourteen
miles northeast of this city, and
pioneer residents of this county, was
severely wounded in action on the
western front the latter part of last
month and last Friday his parents
received word from the war depart
ment that he had died of his wounds.
Gaylor is the first O’Neill boy who
has sacrificed all that he had to give,
his life, on the field of battle and
those who knew him know that he
gave a good account of himself be
fore he received the wounds that re
sulted in his death. Gaylor was a
native of Holt county, and prior to
his induction into the service of his
country, lived at the home of his
parents northeast of this city. He
was a fine gentlemanly young man,
popular among the young people and
his death is a severe blow to his
parents, brother and sisters, but
they can be happy in the thought that
he died a glorious death, on the field
of battle in defense of his country
and the rights of humanity.
