Early Monday morning the citizens of

doctor until shortly before midnight
when she retired leaving him feeling as
well as usual Early in the following
morning she called the doctor whom

Funeral services were conducted in
the Methodist ohurch by Rev Carman
Thursday afternoon many friends pay
ing a last tribute by their presence and
in a wealth of flowers Tho members of
the G A R post and circle attended
but there was no ceremony
There goes out to Mrs Welles in this
sudden and great sorrow the deepest
sympathy of the people of this city
where her husband has been so long
known and respected
Dr Alonzo P Welles was bom in
Steuben county N Y October 29 1815

In 1801 October 6 he enlisted in the
Union army as a member of company I
83th regiment of New York volunteers
In April 1364 ho and his father were
taken prisoners near Plymouth N C
and they remained in the prisons of
Charleston and Florence S C and in
Andersonville until paroled from the
latter on March 1st 1865 Receiving an
honorable discharge as sergeant a few
hours after his parole he went to pro
cure some coffee for his father Upon
returning from his errand the father
could not be found and for ten years no
word came of him when the war depart
ment at Washington sent the doctor his
fathers pocket diary with the informa
tion the father was dead and buried
somewhere in the south land the exact
place being still unknown The mother
in York state not hearing from husband
or son for long while and deeming them
both dead moved with her people to
Illinois where the son afterwards found
her
After the war he attended and was
graduated from the HahnemanniumCol
lege of Medicine Chicago where he
practiced one year after graduation when
he moved to Aurora Nebraska After
a short residence there he went to Colo
rado and thence to McCook in the spring
of 1888 residing here until his death
He was a member of the American In
stitution of Homeopathy and of the Ne
braska State Medical association whose

the last year Two years since he was
the associations president He has been
master workman of the A O U W and
medical examiner of the order and of

Some two years since he was compell
ed by increasing disabilities to discon
tinue the active practice of medicine go
ing to Lincoln for an operation and
treatment twice to Chicago and Lake
Michigan summer resorts once to Ex
celsior Springs Mo Since his return
home about a month since he has rap
idly failed although he was out on the
street as late as last Saturday
His was a complication of diseases
asthma dropsy and heart trouble Mrs
Welles had been reading to him unti
eleven oclock Sunday night when he
seemed as well as usual Early Monday
morning she found him sitting up in bed
as she at first supposed asleep Repeat
ed calls brought the said conviction that
his spirit had winged its flight Mb life
had gone out quietly and peacefully in
his sleep
