Charles O. Sullivan, died at the Glackner Sanatorium in Colorado Springs, Saturday, October 9th, 1909, of Tuberculosis, aged 30 years, 9 months and 26 days.
It was in hopes of regaining his strength that he went west in May, but gradually grew weaker. While the last few weeks were spent in great suffering, he bore it all without a word of complaint, but instead told those about about him of his plans for the future.
He has lived in and near Overbrook the greater part of his life, having been born in Twin Mounds*, [son of John & Anna O'Sullivan] and where he lived until he engaged in business in Overbrook several years ago.
In July of last year, he bought a jewelry store at McLouth, Kansas, where he at once became the friend of everyone he met.
In February he professed Christianity and lived a constant Christian life until death.
He was married to Miss Nettie Kimmell, of McLouth, April 18, 1909.
The remains were accompanied to Overbrook Sunday morning by his devoted young wife, and the funeral was held Monday forenoon from the home of his mother, Mrs. F. W. Hartman, conducted by Rev. G. D. Kunz, of McLouth. Internment was made in the Overbrook cemetery... Charley left to mourn his untimely death, besides his young wife, a mother, three sisters, four brothers and a large circle of friends.
