Samuel Woodson Holsclaw was the first child born to John and Tabitha Holsclaw near Louis ville , Kentucky , August 20 , 1829 , and thus was 76 years , 4 months and 9 days old at the time of his death , which occurred at his home near this village , Dec. 30. 1905. On December 27 , 1842 , Mr. Holsclaw was married to Miss Re becca Conyer in Dearborn county , [ ndiana. In 1851 they removed to Monroe county , Iowa , remain ing there until April , 18S6 , when they came to Valentine , Neb. , where they have since resided , ex cepting three years which was spent at Springview where Mr. Holsclaw served the M. E. church is pastor. Mr. and Mrs. Holsclaw had sev- ? n sons and a daughter , all of tvhom are living except the eldest son. Mrs. Holsclaw preceded Mr. Holsclaw to the spirit world less : han two months ago. A large jircle of relatives and friends in jhis community and others mourn jhe loss of this good man. In his his early life he was con certed to Christ , and for many years he has been a faithful ser vant of the Master , serving as a minister of the Gospel , and doing much to spread Bible holiness. Here at Valentine he preached the first sermon ever preached by a Methodist , and first organized the Methodist society. He had serv ed in the capacity of a pastor of the church in a number of other places in Iowa and Nebraska. Being prominent in the movement of re form in the morals and society of our land his loss will be felt. Rev. Samuel W. Holsclaw died at his home west of town last Sat urday morning of erysipelas after an illness of only one week.
