In this connection THE TRIBUNE
would direct special attention to the ad-
tlress of the evening by William Hawley
Smith , which is the chief event on the
programme. It will be well worth a large
bearing. Mr. Smith is not a frothy ,
eloquent orator , but he is more , a gifted
speaker of rare common sense and power.
He has well earned his exalted place on
the America platform and in the hearts
of the American people , GS an author , as
a. public reader and as a platform speak
er , not to speak of his high standing as
an educator. He has delighted McCook
audiences before with his wisdom , wit ,
logic and incomparable reading , and
another rich opportunity is before the
people of McCook tonight. Don't miss
it. Remember the admission price is
but 25 cents a merely nominal sum.

At a Ripe Old Age.
After an illness of several months ,
William Johnson , Sr. , passed away and
to his reward , last Sunday , at the home
of his daughter , Mrs.
The funeral services were held in the
Methodist church , Tuesday forenoon ,
Rev. H. H. Berry officiating , the remains
having previously been interred in
Riverview cemetery. A large number of
neighbors and friends from .country and
city attended the services to pay a last
tribute to the memory of a good and
grand old man. At the cemetery the
impressive and touching G. A. R. burial
services were held. The services were
attended by the members of the post and
circle in organizations.
The following obituary was read by
Rev. Berry during the services in the
Methodist church , which gives in detail
the facts of the deceased's active , sterl
ing , Christian life :
[ WILLIAM JOHNSON was born in
Hocking county , Ohio , March 27 , 1833 ;
died in Red Willow county , Nebraska ,
May 19 , 1901 ; aged 68 years , i mouth
and 22 days. Was married in his native
county to the now bereaved wife , No
vember 5. 1854. To this union twelve
children were born , five of whom pre
ceded the father to the spirit hind.
Four sons and three daughters linger
to mourn the loss of a loving and kind
father , and to be a solace and comfort to
the sorrowing widow and mother in her
declining years. Three years after their
marriage , in 1857 , Brother and Sister
Johnson emigrated from Ohio to Coles
county , Illinois , where they continued
to live until 1875 , when they came to
Harlan county , Nebraska , and in 1881
they took up their permanent home in
Red Willow county , where they contin
ued to live until a few months before his
death , when failing health compelled
him to retire from the active pursuits of
life. They moved from their home to
that of his daugher , from whence God
called him. When our civil war broke
out the fire of patriotism that burned so
brightly in so many loyal hearts was not
lacking in the heart of Brother Johnson :
With all the comforts of a pleasant and
* *
*
- *
happy home , with the associations and
need of a young wife and three small
children at home demanding his pres
ence and his care , when his country
called it was the call to him to a more
sacred duty , and on the 8th day of Aug
ust , 1862 , he bade his wife and children
"good bye" and enlisted in company H ,
79th Regiment of Illinois Volunteers ,
under command of that noted and heroic
preacher , Colonel Allen Buckner. June
12 , 1865 , he was mustered out of the
service and returned to his loved ones to
again take up the life of a civilian after
3 years' service , in which he participated
in some of the most desperately fought
battles , among them being "Stone
River , " Liberty Gap , " "Chickainauga"
and "Mission Ridge. " Brother Johnson
was converted and united with the
Methodist church at the age of 15 and
ever after lived a devoted and constant
Christian life having in the 53 years of
his church life faithfully and conscien
tiously filled all the offices of the church. ]
