DEATHS
ADAM ENDERLEIN- In accordance with his oft expressed desire that he might pass out of this world quietly without long suffering, Adam Enderlein, a resident of Seneca for forty-three years, laid down life's burdens Monday evening, July 14th. For a good many years, in fact ever since his retirement from the butcher business, Mr. Enderlein had been in ill health but nearly all the time able to get about the house and care for the yard and his little garden.
Three years ago he was seriously ill and his life despaired of but he seemed to recover his former health and on the day of his death made two trips to town. He ate a hearty supper and shortly afterward complained of feeling ill. Mrs. Enerlein attended to his wants and insisted on staying home from the Chautauqua but Mr. Enderlein urged her to go, and Miss Emma remained at her home with her father. Mr. Enderlein had been sitting on the porch with his daughter but got up and went around the house. About 8:00 Miss Enderlein missed him and went into the back yard and found him lying on the ground and thought him sleeping. She went to Mr. Magee's to secure assistance in getting him into the house. Mr. Magee came over and a doctor was summoned. The daughter took her father's head into her arms and he passed peacefully away. It was evident that he had become weary and lay down to rest from the exhaustion of a long hot midsummer day.
Adam Henry Enderlein was born March 23, 1835 in Suss, Provence of Hesse, Germany. In 1852 he came to America with his mother settling at St. Louis. Later he made his home in New Orleans, Louisiana for sometime. In 1862 he enlisted in the Second Vermont Light Artillery and was made corporal. He was mustered out of service at the close of the war in 1865 as a member of the First Independent Company of Vermont Heavy Artillery. In 1870 Mr. Enderlein came to Seneca. Four weeks afterward on October 16, 1870 he was united in marriage to Miss Emma Henrietta Kuchs of Doniphan, Kansas. To this union were born six children, four of whom, with the widow survive him. Edmund B. is owner of a bakery at Altos, Oklahoma; Miss Emma is at home; Albert E., manager of The Firstenberger Clothing store in this city and Theodore H. an attorney in Oklahoma City. Mr. Enderlein built the brick building on Main street formerly occupied by the Buehler Clothing Company and there he conducted a butcher shop for twelve years. Joseph Schmitz, now a farmer in Clear Creek township ran a meat wagon for Mr. Enderlein at this time.
Although not a member of no particular denomination Mr. Enderlein for years has been intensely interested in the welfare of the Congregational church but a few blocks from his home. Very early in the history of Seneca Lodge No. 69 A. O. U. W. he became a member of the order.
Funeral services will be held this morning at ten o'clock at the Congregational church conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. A. Moore. The G. A. R. Post of which he was a member, will conduct the burial services and interment will be made in the city cemetery. Theodore H. Enderlein who came Wednesday noon from Oklahoma City and Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Emerson, Mrs. AA. E. Endeleins' parents who live in Hiawatha, will be in attendance at the funeral.

Adam Enderlein has been bothered considerably the past two months by sneak thieves; and Sunday night while sitting in his back room he heard a fellow coming into the yard. He looked out and saw him just back of his house; but stepping up on a chair to reach his revolver, he slipped and made a noise, which scared the thief back. But Endrlein got sight of him right under his porch, and shot at him. The fellow yelled, and run north between Jacob's shop and house. No definite clue has yet been found of the thief; but a close watch is kept on a suspicioned party to see if Enderlein hit him.
