due to miliary tuberculosis and came after about four months'
illness, although he had been complaining for almost a year. On

he received treatment and on May 31st returned to his home, having
since been confined to same and his condition gradually becoming
worse until death came. Funeral services were held yesterday
(Friday) afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Presbyterian church, conducted
by Elder A G Crosswhite of Peru. Interment was made in Maple
Lawn.
"Samuel Asbury Musselman, one of six children of John and Hannah
Musselman, was born on the old Musselman homestead about four
miles north of Flora, and was the last of his father's family to survive.
All his life had been spent in Carroll county. His death was likewise
the first in his own family. Could he have lived until December 2 next
he would have been 61 years of age. He was united in marriage on
January 13, 1885, to Mattie E McCain. To this union, but one child,
Glen, was born, who resides at Camden and together with the widow
and one grandchild, Jewel Maxine, survives. Deceased moved to Flora
from the farm in 1904 and for eighteen years had been one of its highly
esteemed citizens. The past few years he had been employed as
auto salesman, being connected for about two years with Blue & Lesh
and the past year with Jackson Brothers & Company. In this capacity
he had formed a wide acquaintance over Carroll county. Twenty-two
years ago he united with the Lower Deer Creek Church of the Brethren
and upon moving to this city for residence, transferred his membership
to the local church, and had always remained a faithful follower of the
faith. He was a good neighbor, kind and loving companion and father,
his word was as good as his bond, and in his death the city once again
is called upon to give up one of its useful and best liked men. But
God knows best. Death finally_______ edict, and _____________--"
