Morris T. Green was born at Milton, Wisconsin, February 8, 1854 and died at Grand Island, Nebraska, where he had gone for medical treatment, Saturday morning, June 27, 1903.
He was the youngest of thirteen children of Thomas Green and a grandson of Judge Edward Greene, who was a soldier in the Revolutionary war and in the war of 1812, and was also the first judge of Madison county, New York. Morris came to North Loup in 1878 and in the same year was married to Ann Laura Cottrell, who died 1881. Two children were born to them both of whom died in infancy. April 7, 1883 he was married to Edith L. Webb who with three children survive him.
At the age of twenty-three he became a member of the Seventh Day Baptist church of Albion, Wisconsin. Soon after coming to this place he united with the S. D. B. church in the fellowship of which he died. He was a sincere christian, a loyal member of the C. E. society and of the choir, and was ever ready to do that which came to him to do.
The respect in which he was held in the community was shown by the large attendance at his funeral which was held at the S. D. B. church Sunday at two P. M., conducted by his pastor, Rev. A. B. Prentice and under the auspices of the organizations of which he was a member.
Thru his efforts to save his brother-in-law from burning to death in a prairie fire which swept over this country in 1878, he was severely burned and was badly crippled yet was always cheerful and happy.
He was a faithful member of the I. O. O. F., the A. O. U. W. and the S. and D. of P.
