Obituary.

Milton Clay Boone was born in Ohio, Jan. 29, 1828 and died after a critical illness of only a few days at the home of his son in law, J.W. Douglass, Aug. 27, 1905, aged 77 years, 6 months and 28 days.

He had been in poor health for a number of years, having suffered a stroke of paralysis several years ago.
He was married in 1859, his wife preceding him in death only a few months. He was the father of twelve children, nine of whom are still living.

Mr. Boone was well known in this section of Missouri. He was one of the pioneers of the west, and saw the land change from a pasture land inhabited only by wild animals and Indians to the well developed country which it now is.

Funeral services were conducted by the writer at the home of J.W. Douglass and concluded at the Cunningham cemetery near Fabius where the remains were laid to rest. A large concourse of relatives and friends attended the funeral to pay respects to the deceased.

A host of friends sympathize with those who mourn the loss of father and relative.
-J.W. Parks
