CAPT. SAM'L TURNER IS DEAD
A Good Man Gone
The news of the death of Capt. Samuel Turner of Arno was telephoned to our city Tuesday evening shortly after 1:30 p.m. and the news was received by everyone as a shock and on every hand it was said, "A good man gone." His enemies, if any he had, unite with his friends in deep sorrow and appreciate the fact that one of our county's benefactors is gone and that his place can never be filled.
He had been sick for some ten weeks and attended by the best medical attention that could be procured in the county and eminent doctors from Springfield. He had been apprised of the seriousness of his condition several weeks before his death and he bore up under the great strain as only a Christian and a truly good man can bear.
He leaves a widow and eight children to survive him and keep his memory green, and he goes to meet his daughter and parents where the weary are at rest. His death is not the loss of his family along, but the loss of the whole county.
A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY
Capt. Turner was born in the State of Indiana, Novermber 3, 1836, and when a mere child moved with his parents to Spring Creek, Douglas County, Missouri and soon moved to Arno where he has since lived, with the exception of about two years when he resided on the farm now owned by Sheriff Klineline.
