Mr. Shove was one of our best known citizens, and reared a family, whose
prosperity and kindness were the joy of his old age. For some years past
he had retired from active work, and had been in failing health. A week
ago Sunday, he was confined to his bed, and expired suddenly and without
pain on Friday morning. The funeral occurred on Sunday, and a large number
of sympathizing friends accompanied the relatives as they brought all that
was mortal of Alonzo Shove to his last resting place.
