LEWIS HEVEL DEAD.
Old Settler Dropped Dead Yesterday Morning.
Lewis Hevel, age 86 years, died yesterday morning at eleven o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs. J. W. Phillipy, 1510 Briggs ave. Mr. Hevel had not been feeling well for some time, but his condition was not considered serious, and yesterday morning when he arose, he was feeling well, but later in the morning he complained of feeling bad and at eleven o'clock he fell dead. The funeral services will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock from the residence. Services will also be held at Franklin school house six miles east of the city at 11 o'clock, and burial will be made in Franklin cemetery.
Mr. Hevel was born in Pennsylvania in 1828, and was married to Mary Ann Beekham in 1851. To this union six children were born, three daughters, Mrs. Henry Bradfield, Mrs. J. W. Philipy, and Mrs. George Camp, all of Parsons, and three sons, William Hevel of McCune, Henry Hevel of Mound Valley, and Allen Hevel of Houston, Tex.
Mr. Hevel came to Parsons in the early seventies, and was well known among the old settlers of Parsons.

This section has again lost another of its old settlers. Each year and month as the cycle of times passes another of the old pioneers is called to his home beyond the skies. This time it was our kind old friend and neighbor, Lewis Hevel, who died suddenly at the home of his daughter, Mrs. John Phillipy, in Parsons. Grandpa was well liked by all, he being loved by all who knew him as he was a good citizen, a Christian living an honest God fearing life. Mr. Hevel was one of North Township's earliest pioneers of whom there are few left. He is survived by two daughters and three sons. Interment was in Franklin cemetery, in sight of his old homestead. The heartfelt sympathies are with the bereaved ones in this, their sad hour.
