From Blairstown Press: After an illness of several weeks duration, David Anderson finally passed away from this life on Thursday morning, December 12th at the home of his daughter, Mrs. May Conklin. The direct cause of his death was cancer of the stomach.
David Anderson was the son of Samuel W. and Matilda Anderson; born in Harrison county, Ohio, February 4, 1837, making him 64 years, 10 months and eight days old at the time of his death. With his parents he came to LeRoy township, Benton county, Iowa, October 22, 1855, and has passed the majority of his days in and around this vicinity. He was one of a large family of children, most of whom are still living, and six of his brothers and sisters were with him during the latter part of his illness. The funeral exercises will be held from the M. E. church this afternoon at 1:30 o'clock and the remains will be placed in the Pleasant Hill cemetery.
Besides the brothers and sisters of Mr. Anderson, there are two daughters left to grieve over the passing away of a kind father. One of these, Mrs. Henry, is now living in Chicago, while the other, Mrs. Conklin, still resides at Blairstown. Their many friends extend to all the bereaved relatives their expression of sympathy and comfort at this sad hour that of certainty comes to each of us at one time or another.
