"At 12:05 Monday morning occurred the death of Henry W. Harbugh at their temporary home on South Main street. The deceased was 54 years of age and had only recently moved with his family to this city, coming from near Sabetha, Kansas. Mr. Harbaugh had just recently purchased a home in the south eastern part of town and while making repairs on the house, contracted the disease which caused his demise.
While tearing down some of the boards the dust from this settled on his lungs and with a bad cold brought on pneumonia. The deceased was ill scarcely a week, the grim hand of death tarried not long before the final grip, and the soul of Henry W. Harbaugh passed into the land beyond all storms and sorrows.
He is survived by his wife and seven children who are thus bereft of a kind and loving husband and father. A short funeral service was conducted by Rev. Haskins at their home at 7:15 Wednesday morning. The funeral cortage in charge of Reavis & Abbey went to Capavoma, close to Oneida and ten miles south of Sabetha, Ks. Where interment took place.
Many floral tributes were brought, chief among which were those from the schoolmates of the Harbaugh children.
While the family is almost entire strangers to Falls City people, still we extend to them our sympathy in this bout of grief and sadness."
