| Birth: | Dec. 6, 1882 | | Death: | Nov. 21, 1907 | 
Vinton INMAN, only son of Mr. and Mrs. James INMAN, who managed the Leland Hotel here several years ago, died at Churchs Ferry, N. D., one day last week from an operation for appendicitis. The remains were brought here Monday and taken to the cemetery on Kentucky Ridge for interment.
Thursday, November 21, the people of the community of Churchs Ferry were shocked by the sad news that Vincent INMAN, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. James INMAN, had passed over the silent river of death. Just eight days before the final summons came, the young man was seized by a severe attack of appendicitis, and though everything that the doctors could accomplish for the sufferer was done, he steadily grew worse until the end. Sad though death always is, the circumstances attending the death of this splendid young man renders his taking away more pathetic because he was the idol of this mother’s heart and the reliance of his devoted father. Besides these he leaves behind a grief stricken young woman whom he was to have married before Thanksgiving Day. “Vint,” as he was known among his associates was born in Martin County, Indiana, December 6, 1882, and was therefore nearly twenty-five years of age at the time of his death. In March 1903, he moved with his parents to Benson County, North Dakota. He was a splendid example of the best type of young American manhood; honest to the highest degree, generous to a fault; one whose fair name the breath of scandal never tarnished. Mr. and Mrs. INMAN have lost a tender and devoted son, and one whose first thought was ever for their welfare, to whom he was devoted. Miss JOHNSON, to whom he was betrothed, has been deprived of one who would ever have proved a devote helpmate and a shelter from the storms and vicissitudes of life. To each of threes the hearts of the entire community go out in sympathy and most sincere sorrow. May He who reigns above give them strength in their hour’s need. FRIEND.
Churches Ferry, N. D., November 29, 1907.
