Harvey Otis King was born in Merrick County, Nebr., Jan. 12, 1877 and was taken from this life December 19th, 1924, aged 47 years, 11 months and 7 days.
He united in marriage with Miss Lily Maria Ellis, December 6th, 1897. He leaves to mourn his departure a loving wife, two sons, Harold of Hastings, Ray of Marquette; two daughters, Helen and Dorothy, who reside with their mother, two brothers other relatives and scores of friends.
Mr King moved to Hamilton County in 1903 to a farm about two miles north of Marquette where he resided until the time of his death.
He was a faithful member of the United Brethren church and in the Order of Odd Fellows. Nowhere except in his own home is the loss more keenly felt than in these beneficient institutions. The social and spiritual fellowship of these organizations enjoyed by him and the appreciation of his loyalty will increase rather than diminish as the years pass by.
Some men are great for what they accomplish, others are great because of what they are. Both types of greatness are found blended in this life and cannot be separated. There follows this man the highest respect and affection and his works and memory will be cherished because of his honest heart, cherished disposition and personal honor.
Services were held from the United brethren pulpit, Rev W S Henry officiating. Interment was made in the Richland cemetery.
