H. L. BOWEN
The many friends throughout the county were greatly shocked and grieved to learn of the death of H. L. Bowen, of Warren township, which occurred at his home four miles south of Chariton on Wednesday afternoon, April 17th, 1918, at the age of 56 years, 3 months and 9 days, after an illness of about a week with heart trouble.
Largely attended funeral services, conducted by Rev. J. W. Goodsell, were held at the Methodist church in this city on Sunday afternoon at 2:30, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Chariton cemetery.
Hiram Lincoln Bowen was born in Chariton, Iowa, on January 8th, 1862. He was the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. J. N. B. Bowen, who were among the earliest settlers in this part of the state. The home was on East Braden avenue, about where the White Front Hotel is now located.
He was united in marriage to Nina O. Taylor, on Nov. 24th, 1886, whose death occurred December 27th, 1912. Eight children were born to his union, all of whom are living. They are Ralph E. Bowen, of Chariton; Carl T. Bowen, of Holland, Michigan; Gerald A. Bowen, 168th Regiment Field Headquarters, A.E.F. France; Mrs. Ethel Yocom, of Murdo, S. D.; Vera M., Harold H., Edith M. and Willard L., who have been living at home. One grandson is also living.
Mr. Bowen had spent his whole lifetime in Lucas county. He was well and favorably known in this locality and had made a host of friends who mourn his sudden and unexpected going away.
He has one brother and two sisters living, George Bowen, of Pasadena, California; Mrs. L. J. Robinson, of Fort Dodge, and Mrs. Lizzie Farber, of Hoxie, Kansas.
His many friends and associates in the two lodges to which he belonged, the Odd Fellows and the Homesteaders, will recall his virtues with a sense of personal pride, and feel deeply his loss. He and his family were all members of the Methodist Episcopal church in this city.
He was a man of strict integrity and high ideals, and his passing away is deplored by all who knew him. To the children, who are bereft of a loving father, the deep sympathy of the community will be extended.
