Ed. Richards.
Ed Riohards WHS birn February ,
1864 , in Wales and came with his
parents TO America when he was
eight years old.
When Ed was 17 or 18 years old
he was interpreter for the Ind.an-J ,
while his faher was Issue Clerk at
Lower Brule agency. Later Eii
went to work in the cattle business
as a cow puncher , and for a number
of years worked for the Ogallalla
Cattle comp my , representing them
in the roundups and traveled over
the western part of this state and
E-istern Wyoming. Western South
Dakota and into Montana. He
later worked for John Bratt in the
same capacity , and about 12 years
ago started in for hini- elf with 80
head of Texas cows near Irwin.
S.mie years later he came do\vn to
Kennedy and for a\vhite run his
hed west of Dan Sears' ranch , then
moved to his present ranch eisfc of
Kennedy.
He joined the M. W. A. some
- * and carried § 2,000
y-ars ago , in
surance for his family a wife and
f jur children. He also belonged to
t ie Masonic fraternity who took
charge of his funeral , which was
hdld in Valentine Sunday afternoon
at the M. E. church and the funeral
sermon was preached by Rev. Baker.
Ed Richards had a large circle of
friends. All the old time cattle
men knew him. The large attend
ance at his funeral was not only as
acourttsyto the departed friend
hut because of friends who mourned
his death. The country has lost a
citizen ; friends have lost a counse
lor and a comrade , the wife has lost
a valuable and loving husband and
the children a devoted father.
We'll all miss him. He's been
called away sooner than we expect
ed hut death conies to all and plucks
the apparently strong and rugged
ones , often passing by the frail.
A brother , R.chard J. h'ic.hard
came no to attend the funeral. He
lives nt Hartington with his moth
er. Ed was down to see them rec
ently and only a couple of weeks
before his death he was on our
streets , cheerful and strong as he
responded to onr "Hello Ed. "
