FATHER IS CALLED TO HIS REWARD –W. H. Davis Passes To His Reward at Fullerton –
Word was received here the fore part of last week that W. H. Davis, well known to many of our readers, had passed away at his home in Fullerton. Deceased was the father of E. H. Davis of Wolbach, who was in Kearney on a business mission at the time the word was received here. The son and family attended the funeral which was held at Fullerton last Thursday.
In speaking of the death of Mr. Davis the Fullerton Post has the following to say: A shadow of sorrow fell over the community Tuesday when it was announced that W. H. Davis had passed away at his home in this city. He had been in failing health for several years and for the past few weeks had been confined to his home. Mr. Davis was one of the early settlers of Merrick and Nance counties and took an active part in the business world and church affairs. He was ever ready to lend a helping hand to his neighbors and his life was filled with useful and kind deeds.
The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the bereaved family. The funeral services will be held from the home at 3:00 o'clock this afternoon (Thursday) and burial will be made in Riverside cemetery.
