Obituary-M. H. Allen.
M. [ilton] H. Allen died at his home in Oakland County, Cal., June 26, 1916, aged 47 years, 3 months and 22 days. The remains were brought to Bedford, arriving here Sunday night. The funeral services were held at the First Methodist Episcopal church Monday afternoon at 2 o ‘clock, conducted by Rev. J. W. Goodsell. Interment was made in the Fairview cemetery.
Milton H. Allen was born in Knox County, Ill., March 4, 1869. He was the son of John and Malvina [Stewart] Allen, who have preceded him to the land of promise. In this family there were four children: W. [illiam] F. [rancis] Allen of Bedford, Ann Mary [Anna May], who died when eight years old, Milton H., the deceased, and Mrs. Cora Gooding of Bedford, Iowa. He was united in marriage to Grace D. [arling] Terry of Oakland, Cal., April 29, 1901. The wedding occurred at University Place, Lincoln, Neb. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F. N. Esterbrook, an uncle of the groom. Mr. and Mrs. Allen first met when our Iowa boys were quartered in California, previous to sailing to the Philippine Islands and out of this meeting there grew the happy romance and devoted married life that has continued to this time. He united with the Methodist Episcopal church of Bedford, Iowa, in 1889, during the pastorate of Rev. E. W. McDade. He was a veteran of the Spanish-American war, serving as sergeant in Company 1, 51st Iowa Infantry. He was a member of the Blue Lodge of the Masonic order.
