Howard Cave Dies After a Long Illness
Howard Cave, aged 57, for many years a well known merchant of Conesville, died at the home of his sister Mrs. Mahala Slaughter on Tenth street Friday shortly after noon, after an extended illness of Bright's Disease. Several months ago Mr. Cave was forced to give up his position at the Beach company's plant on account of failing health. Sine that time he had gradually grown worse and for the past week it was evident that the end was near.
Howard Cave was born near Adams Mills in November 1855. When a lad but ten years of age his parents died and after that time he made his home with his oldest sister, Mrs. James F. Marquand of Conesville.
Mr. Cave never married. For many years he was engaged in the mercantile business in Conesville where he made a wide acquaintance among the residents of that portion of the county. He was a man who was respected by all who knew him. Honest and straightforward in his business dealings and active in the cause of right at all times his quiet, kindly manner won for him staunch friends on every hand.
While Mr. Cave always counted Coshocton county his home, he at several different times made extended western trips being forced a number of years ago to relinquish his interest in the store on account of his ill health.
Eleven years ago, following the death of his oldest sister Mrs. Marquand, with whom he had made his home for many years, Mr. Cave again went west for a few years. Since his return several years ago, he resided with his sisters Mrs. Slaughter and Miss Dora Cave on Tenth street and was employed as foreman at the Beach company's plant. He was not a church member and the only lodge he ever joined was the recently organized L.O.O.M.
In addition to the sisters, with whom he made his home, two brothers survive. They are Harvey of New Moscow and George of Iowa.
Funeral services will be held Monday morning at 9:30 from the late home and burial will take place in South Lawn cemetery. The Local Order of Moose will be in charge of the funeral.
