DEATH CALLS C. L. ANDREWS
Many friends in this city will learn with sorrow of the death of Mr. C. L. Andrews, which occurred at his home, 409 North Main street, on Sunday morning, March 25,1928, at the age of 76 years, 10 months and 8 days, after an extended illness.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev. Geo. D. Crissman, of the M. E. church, were held at the family residence on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, and were attended by many sorrowing relatives and friends. The floral tributes were profuse and beautiful and bore testimony to the high regard in which deceased was held.
Columbus L. Andrews was born May 17, 1851, near Pomeroy, Ohio. At the age of three years he moved with his parents to Knoxville, Illinois, where he grew to manhood. For a number of years he was in the employ of the C. B. & Q. railway as a brakeman and conductor. Later, about 1886, he was appointed a railway mail clerk on the C. B. & Q. with a run between Chicago and Omaha, which position he held until June, 1920, when he was compelled to retire on account of an accident which left him a cripple.
He was married to Miss Emma C. Stanley on December 18, 1879, and to this union three children were born, one of whom, Ethel, died at the age of 9 years. The other two, Carl of this city, and Ralph, of La Crosse, Wis., with his kind and devoted wife, survive him.
Two grandchildren, Donald and Roger Andrews, of this city, and two brothers and one sister, Charles Andrews, of Orient; Frank Andrews, of Council Bluffs; and Mrs. Mettie Woods, of Osceola, are also living. All were present at the last sad rites.
During the pastorate of Rev. A. H. Collins, Mr. Andrews united with the Methodist church, of which faith he was a firm believer and was one of the trustees during the erection of the present M. E. edifice.
He was an honest, upright citizen, a loving husband and father, a kind neighbor, and a good friend. He was held in high esteem by a large circle of friends, who join with the family in mourning his demise. The sympathy of the entire community will be extended to the sorrowing wife, children and other relatives.
