Louis Sylvester Pappan.
After a sickness of six weeks and nine days, of typhoid fever. This well and favorably known young man, passed away, at his father's home in Washunga, on Saturday evening, Nov. 9th, 1912 at 5 o'clock. He was born in the Kaw country, Jan. 28, 1893.
He has lived here since his birth. At his death he was 19 years, 9 months and 11 days old. On Monday, Nov. 11 his remains were taken to the Washunga school house, where the funeral sermon was preached at 2 p.m. to a large congregation, by the Rev. McCroskey.
Some special selections were rendered very sweetly by a quartette of young ladies from Kaw City. At the close of the services the body was conveyed, by the undertaker by a long procession to the Washunga cemetery, where it was gently laid to rest in the new made grave. The snow white casket was beautifully decorated with deftly woven wreaths of cream and white Chrysanthemums. A token of the tender love and esteem in which the departed one was held.
Bereaved ones had the sincere sympathy of all who were present, which was expressed, not only in words, but in tears. May God make good the the loss.
