E. W. Burks, who in company with Mrs. Burks has been spending the winter with his daughter, Mrs. M. L. Lockhart, died at the Lockhart home Saturday afternoon after a brief illness.

Mr. Berks was born at Danville, Indiana, August 14th, 1841, and died December 27, 1924, at the ripe old age of 83 years, 4 months and 13 days. At the age of twenty he enlisted in company A. 3rd Iowa Infantry and served from August 1861 to February 1865, being a rebel prisoner in Texas for nine months of that time. He was married December 27, 1866, to Mary M. Quigley, and passed away on the 58th anniversary of their wedding. He is survived by his wife and seven children, three of the children having preceeded him in death. He united with the Christian Church when about 18 years of age, and remained a faithful member to the time of his death.

Owing to the absence of Rev. Mitchell, pastor of the Christian church, funeral services were held at the Baptist church, Monday at 2 p.m., and were conducted by Rev.
