THE LATE WILLIAM ANGLUM
Emmetsburg Democrat, November 21, 1917
Last week we reported briefly the death of William Anglum at the home of his son James Anglum of Mallard. He was ailing only a day or two, and his physician did not consider his condition at all serious. Sunday morning he arose as usual and the members of the family had to prevail upon him to keep him from attending church. Shortly before the noon hour he went to his room and laid down. His granddaughters were preparing dinner and made some broth for him. When they took it to his room they supposed that he had fallen asleep, but in their great surprise, discovered that he was dead. The remains were taken to the home of his son John of Ayrshire.
The funeral was held on Tuesday. Services were conducted at the Sacred Heart Church, Father Lynch officiating. The burial was in Calvary Cemetery, where the remains of his beloved wife rest. The pall bearers were M.B. Kane, M.J. Conroy, Michael Daily, Peter Waldron, M.P. Carrigan and James Degnan.
The Ayrshire (Iowa) Chronicle Gives the Particulars Of His Life:
William James Anglum was born at Stratford-on-Avon, Ontario, Canada, October 28, 1841 and died at the home of his son, James, at Mallard, Iowa, Sunday, November 11, 1917. Mr. Anglum was a very industrious young man. He graduated from high school with high honors at the age of 20 years.
September 6, 1861 he was united in marriage to Miss Rachel Kirby, at Stratford. Three years later he and his wife came to the United States, making their home for some time in Chicago. Later they came to Iowa locating near Neola. They resided there until 1893, when they came to Palo Alto county. For some time they lived on the Curtis place, down near Rush Lake., later residing on various farms in the Ayrshire neighborhood.
The union formed by his marriage in Stratford was broken on December 29th, 1911 when his good wife passed to her eternal reward. Since that time, Mr. Anglum has made his home with his children, being apparently as contented as one his age could be. Mr. Anglum was the father of eight children, three boys and five girls, of whom three preceded him in death. Mary, who was Mrs. Gardiner; Thomas, and Rachel, who was Mrs. Wilkinson. All passed away after they had reached the estate of manhood and womanhood.
The children who remain to mourn their father’s loss are John, who resides here. James, now at the Woodman Sanitarium for his health; Mrs. [Elizabeth] Bowen of Rimbey, Alberta, Canada; Mrs. Frank [Sarah] Russell of Whittemore, Iowa and Mrs. Winifred Smith of Chokio, Minnesota. Deceased also leaves three sisters, they being Mrs. Mary Peyton and Mrs. Margaret Goodkind, both of Helena, Montana, and Mrs. Henry [Elizabeth] Bradshaw of Carson City, Nevada. None but his brother John and his daughter, Mrs. Frank Russell were able to be present at the funeral.
Deceased had lived to a ripe old age, and beyond any question of doubt, was ready for the summons when it came. His life had been one of service both to his God and his fellow man, and the genuine sorrow expressed by the entire community by the entire community because of his departure is the best attest as to his worth as a man.
Too often as people grow old they become crabbed and over-sensitive which makes them hard to get along with. This was not true of the deceased. Instead of living a secluded life, he made it a point to keep every cheerful, and took great delight in visiting with his many friends. He is gone, but the memory of his friendship will live long in the hearts of everyone in the entire community.
Those from a distance who came here to attend the funeral were: Mr. and Mrs. Frank Russell and William Kollasch of Whittemore, Iowa. John Parks and family, Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Dyer and Martha Claer of Spencer, P.H. Roland and family of Mallard, George Brown of Clay County, and W. W. Gardiner of Estherville, a grandson, who was raised from a babe of three years by Mr. and Mrs. Anglum.
