E. Lundy, who had been ill for the past three months at his home in the Baptist parsonage, this city, died Saturday, Feb. 8, 1913, at about 3 o’clock in the afternoon. The re ports for the past two weeks or more had been very encouraging, he having been able to sit up more or less each day, and it was thought he would mend rapidly and be up and around in a short time. On Friday he had been able to sit up for nearly two hours and was feeling tine. However, later he seemed to grow worse and on Saturday his physician had been called frequently. After dinner, his condition seemed for the worse, but nothing to cause belief of his sudden demise, till near the hour of three, when the nurse noticed a sudden change, phoned for the doctor, and before she could return to the bedside he had breathed his last. The funeral occurred from the First Presbyterian church Tuesday afternoon at 2 o’clock, the business houses being closed dur ing the hours thereof in memory of departed and a large concourse of peo ple attending to pay their last respects to departed, interment being made in Evergreen cemetery. Mr. Lundy was born in Ontario county, Ontario. Canada, in 1849, and passed away at Loup City, Nebraska, February 8th, 1913, after a protrated illness of several months. While he was still a child his parents moved to Cedar county, Iowa, where he grew to manhood. His marriage to Miss Catherine Moore occurred in October, 1873. For some years he made his home near West Liberty, Iowa, and nen movea to rioiaen, Missouri, which was ills home for fourteen years. Mr. Lundy and family have been in Nebraska since 1905, making tl eir home first at Friend, in Saline county, and after a year and a half in that community, they took up their residence here in Loup City, where for a number of years Mr. Lundy was the wellkown and successful proprietor of the St. Elmo hotel. Since last November he has been in ill health, and has been closely confined to his home. His departure from our midst leaves many sad hearts to mourn his loss, chief of wliorp are those nearest him. the bereaved wife and the two daughters, Mrs. J. C. Vaughn and Mrs. H. A. Hinman, of this city. Mr. Lundy lias five brothers and three sisters who survive him: Mrs. Martha Holloway and Mrs. Potter, Elk City, Okla.; Mrs. Grice, Vancouver, Wash ington; Elliott and Henry Lundy, Nebraska, Eli and George Lundy, both in Missouri; Edward Lundy, living in Canada. We publish below the following elo quent tribute to decease^ from the pen of an intimate friend: “asleep” Sleep on. thou whose life hath been ! as an open book, known and read of all men: whose example of uprightness has been worth emulating. Sleep on. thou who hath been a lov ing, faithful companion, a fond and tender parent, a loyal friend and good citir.en. Sleep on, thou whose promise hath been a record of fulfillment, and whose word was an unbroken bond, from whose heart emanated charity, and whose hands did deeds of kindness. Sleep on, thou who hath caused the widows’ heart to leap for joy, and the orphans’ tears to cease, and who hath ever been the friend and champion of honor, virtue and truth. Sleep on, thou to whom the even ing of life hath come, and whose sun lias set on a day well spent and deeds well done. Sleep on, thou to whom the night of death hatli come; death which is but the triumphal arch, the eternal gateway into the fair tields of im mortality and endless life. And standing at the portals of the tomb, Hope almost bears the rustle of a wing; Faith thinks she sees the flowers immortal I bloom. ahu near* me angles oi glory Sing. Shine on, thou bright star of hope, until the dawn of the perfect day, when the s.n of perfect peace, joy and happiness shall arise upon the verdant fields of the eternal world, when will be exemplified the Omnip otence of an All-wise Creator and the inimitable justice of a Loving Fat her, as foretold by one of old, whose mind, touched by the Infinite Intelligence, in prophetic vision “Saw the dead, booh small and great, stand before God: and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.” Sleep on, thou beloved one, rest ic peace, safe in the precious hope, secure in the beautiful promise of the dawn of a resurrection morn, when we shall meet thee again around the Great White Throne, and receive oui just rewards. CARD OF THANKS Mrs: Katherine Lundy and Family desire to extend their heartfelt thanks and deep appreciation to Friends and Neighbors for thei; many acts of kindness and thoughtfu ministrations at the time of theii great bereavment and during thi Illness of Husband and Father Charles B. Lundy. Mas. Katherine Lundy and Family Station Agent Killed at Miller Kearney, Feb., 6_George H. Hood, Union Pacific station agent at Miller, Neb., twenty-six miles northeast of here, on the Callaway branch, was shot and killed. His lifeless body was found in the street close to the depot. It seems that Hood was busy in the office at the depot when some one attempted to rob the place, for when the body was found he was in his shirt-sleeves and bareheaded. Nothing in the office was molested, it being thought that after the shoot ing the murderer ran away. A bullet was shot through a win dow of the office and one was fired in to Hood’s head, lodging at the base of the brain. Blood was found in the chair that the agent had occu pied, as well as upon the floor leading out of the office. It seems certain that Hood was killed before midnight, as the ground under the body was bare of snow. Snow commenced to fall shortly after midnight and continued until morn ing. There is little or no clue as to the identity of the murderer or mur derers. Hood was a single man of good hab. its and so far as known had no en emies. He had been in the employ of the Union Pacific ten years. Boyd Burrowes At It Again We have received a letter from Loup City's old favorite, Boyd Bur rowes, that he has again started out in the show business, and is getting readv, with headquarters at Fremont, to put a big tent show on the road the coming season. He says he will be on the road this season with an entirely new show and the finest can vas theatre ever constructed. He evidently will not start Out before May 1st, as he orders his mail all ad dressed to Fremont till that date. ’Rati for Boyd, Loup City’s own and ever popular footlight artist. A Quiet Wedding A quiet wedding was solemized at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. DeCamp, on Tuesday morning, at 7 o'clock, when Miss Hazel DeCamp and Dr. S. A. Allen were joined in marriage, Rev. Leeper, of Loup City, saying the words that joined those two young lives together. After the ceremony was over, the wedding party sat down to a ’ bounti ful wedding breakfast and later took the Union Pacific for a brief wedding tour through the eastern part of the state. Nearly all our people know the bride. She has resided in this city most of her life and almost every day she made new friends so that at this time every resident of this city and community are friends of hers. She is an elegant young ladv and is en titled to the best there is. She has ! been teaching school for the past few years and last fall went to Loup City, where s.ic accepted a position in the city schools. The groom is a fine appearing fel low. He is a dentist in Loup City and has an excellent reputation, he being well spoken of by his friends and associates. After a short wed ding trip they will be at home to their many friends in Loup City, \ where they will make their future home. The Phonograph desires to extend congratulations and best wishes to this happy young couple.—St. Paul Phonograph.
