From Monday's Daily
Yesterday afternoon at 2:30 at the
old home southeast of Union occurred
the death of Eli Eaton, aged 87 years
and one of the pioneer residents of
the vicinity of Union. Mr. Eaton had
been quite sick since Thursday and
his condition gradually grew worse
until death came to his relief and
brought to the close a long and use
ful life. .
Mr. Eaton has resided for more
than sixty years at the farm home on
the .. Sciota bottoms southeast of
Union and where he was making
his home with Mr. and Mrs. Edward
Dukes at the time of his death, they
having charge of thf Eaton farm.
i ne teceasea was Dorn April iu.
1841 and lacked but a few days of
being eighty-seven years of age and
the greater part of this long life
has been spent in and near Union.
The deceased tame to Union from
the south as a young man and lo
cated on the farm, where he has
since resided. By his tireless efforts
and industry he has helped develop
that section of the county and make
it a fine and successful community.
He is one of the last of the pioneers
that have labored in the building up
of Liberty precinct and as the old j
friends passed to the great beyond
this rugged pioneer was still carry
ing on his daily activities and re
tained until the last the keen inter
est in the community that he had
helped to build.
In his lifetime Mr. Eaton was a
strong member of the Baptist faith i
and in which he remained a firm be
liever until death.
T.o survive this splendid pioneer
there remains six children, Mrs. J.
P. Clugy of Plattsmouth. D. E. Eaton,
John Eaton of Union, Mrs. Mary
Tillman and Frank Eaton of Denver,
Colorado, and Mrs. W. H. Younker
of Ogallala, Nebraska. The wife of
Mr. Eaton preceded h-im in death i
many years ago.
