WELL KNOWN ABSTRACTOR DIES
AT EARLY HOUR TODAY
ILL SEVERAL WEEKS
LONG TIME RESIDENT HERE
Attack of Heart Trouble Proves Fatal
to Well Beloved Friend and
Neighbor This Morning.
From Tuesday's t'ailv
Shortly after the passing of the old
day and the swift approach of the
new. on the wings of the morning,
the spirit of Thomas Walling, long
time resident of 1'lattsmouth, took its
flight, death coming to his side at
.? o'clock this morning.
Though the illness with which Mr.
Walling was stricken three weeks ago
was recognized to be very serious, it
was not thought that the case was
more serious than usual last evening,
and the sudden change fzr the worse
came as a very great sioek to the
family, who in a few moments were
called upon to part with the hus
band and father.
In the death of Mr. Walling, the
community in which he has made his
home for a period of forty years, is
poorer, indeed. Those who have
known him the best will feel as keen
as those whose tiei; of blood bound
him to them, the passing of a kind
friend, a noble citizen, a man indeed
in every sense the term might imply.
This kindly gentleman was born
across the seas, in Wales. February
22. 1863, but in his strong love of
his adopted country he gave way to
no man and was a true :ind patriotic
citizen in the land that he had taken
as his own homeland, where his fam
ily had been born and reared. It
was a source of pride to him that
when the call of country came two of
his sons not yet reaching their man
hood, had responded to their, coun
try's call, and the heart of Mr. Wall
ing wast ever atune to-the-ail of
the service men of the nation. He
thought deeply of the problems of
the day and was keen in the espousal
of the principles that he believed were
best for his nation and Lis people.
From his native laud he had
brought a great love of sports and
none in this community were keener

athletic sports than was Mr. Walling,

Mr. Walling was twice married,

whose death occurred some fifteen

later to Miss Katherine McHugh, who
is left to mourn his passing. There
are also five children, Robert,
Thomas, Leonard, Mary Margaret and
Edmund, to mourn the loss of the
kind and loving father.
In addition to the family living
here, Mr. Walling is survived by
three sisters. Mrs. Aliiee Hayton and

It has been given to but few men
to have lived as long in a community
as Mr. Walling and to possess as
large a circle of warm and loving
friends. The word of his death has
brought a personal sorrow to hun
dreds of the residents of thiseity. In
a life as active as that of Mr. Wal
ling, it is unusual to escape the com
mon lot of acquiring enemies as well
as friends, but in nis case there is no
one in the community but who was
a friend of this kindly gentleman.

by his careful advice and friendly
council, giving the benefit of his
years of experience to those young
er than himself. In all this time his
interest in his friends was more than
passing and he loved to learn of the
success or progress of his friends or
to share with them the sorrows or
the rough buffeting that contact with
the world sometimes brings. His go
ing will leave a place hard to fill in
the hearts and lives of those who
knew him and if rewards come to
, those who transfer their lives from
here to the world beyond surely a
place of joy in the sunshine of eter
nity has been reserved for Thomas
Walling. As Fritz Green Hallack
paid tribute to his departed friend,
so might it be said of Mr. Walling:
' When hearts, whose truth was
proven.
Like thine, are laid to earth;
There should a wreath be woven,
To tell the world their worth.
"Green be the turf above thee.
Friend of my better days!
None knew thee but to love thee.
Nor named thee but to praise."

Mrs. Henry Boeck Called to Last Re
ward Saturday Night at 7 :30
One of Our Oldest Citizens.
From Monday's Dally
The Cass county friends of the
Henry Boeck family were shocked
and grief stricken yesterday after
noon when the message was received
here by D. A. Young of near Mur
ray announcing the death of his only
sister. Mrs. Henry Boeck, at Los
Angeles. '
Mrs. Boeck was one of the earliest
residents of Cass county, her parents.
William Young and wife having set
tled here in 1855 and lived for many
years on the homestead south of this
city until their death. For the past
eight years the Boeck family has re
sided at Los Angeles where they spent
their declining years. For the past
few years Mrs. Boeck has been very
poorly in health and since the death
of her husband on December 4, 1924.
Mr. Boeck has been failing very
rapidly and missing the tender care
and attention that the husband had
given her In the days of her declin
ing years.
Elizabeth Jane Young was born
August 31, 1S43, in Nodaway county.
Missouri, where the family had set
tled at a very early day, and there
the deceased spent her childhood
days, removing in 1S49 to Glenwood.
Iowa, with her parents. William and
Rebecca Young. The family moved
to Cass county, Nebraska, in 1S55
and where Mr. Young pre-empted a
homestead six miles south of Platts
mouth and where the son. D. A.
Young, still resides. In her girlhood
Mrs. Boeck became a member of the
Methodist church in which faith she
remained firm until death.
In the year 1864 the deceased was
united in marriage to Henry Boeck,
they a young man just located at
Plattsmouth and which city was the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Boeck for a
period of fifty-two years. Here in
thi3 city this estimable family con
tributed a great deal to the upbuild
ing of the community and their
ernest and. careful labors aided in the
developing of the city and where they
grew to be among the best known and
highly respected citizens of tne com
munity.
The advancing years and the de
sire to enjoy the period of time that
was alloted to them caused Mr. and
Mrs. Boeck in 1917 to remove to
California where they located at Los
Angeles where they have since re
sided and where the death of Mr.
Boeck occurred in December 1924.
Since the death of the husband, Mrs.
Boeck has resided at the old folks
home at Los Angeles as her health
would not permit her maintaining
her home.
She is preceeded in death by her
parents, one foster daughter. Mrs.
Ida Green, one brother and four sis
ters. There remain to mourn the
passing of this good woman, the
brother, David A. Young, of near
Murray and one foster granddaugh
ter, Mrs. Madeline Green Beebe of
Chadron, Nebraska.
The funeral services and Interment
will be made at Los Angeles where
Mr. Boeck rests in the last long
sleep.
SIX O'CLOCK BIRTHDAY DINNER.
From Tuesday's Daily
The pleasant country home of Mr.
and Mrs. C. L. Wiles, west of this
city, was the scene of a very enjoy
able occasion on Monday evening,
when their daughter, Miss Delores
entertained a few of her friends at a
6 o'clock dinner.
Covers were laid for eight In the
dining room, where the three-course
dinner was served by Mrs. Wiles, as
sisted by Alice Barbara. The pink
color scheme was evidenced in a cut
glass basket of pink roses in the cen
ter of the table with two cut glass
candlesticks, bearing pink candles, at
either end. The nut cups and place
cards were also in keeping with the
color scheme.
Previous to the serving of the last
course, a large white cake oearing
18 lighted candles was placed upon
the table and at the signal of the
honor guest, the candles were ex
tinguished by one big blow in unison.
The cake was then cut and it was
found to contain fortune telling sym
bols. This afforded great amusement
as the future of each guest was dis
closed. The cake together with pink
and white brick ice cream composed
the last course.
The remainder of the evening was
spent in social conversation, music
and the playing of bridge.
Those who enjoyed this happy oc
casion were Catherine Schneider,
Eleanor McCarty, Stuart Egenberger,
Rudolph Iverson, Carl Keil, Fred
Trilety, Violette Begley and Delores
