Death of Burton W. Hogle
What had been expected as inevitable for some time yet what had been heroically fought against and hoped against, happened Wednesday November 3rd, at the private Dispensary of Dr's Hogle in this city, the death of a beloved and young member of the family, "Burt." Like the beautiful days now with us, his life was short, but not like them in that the end came after the ripening of a natural term of life. Why it should be only He that causes the seasons to pass and the leaves to drop at a brilliant climax understands. It is all so beautifully ordered that we can but trust the wisdom of it, though it requires all confidence and conviction to see and yet not to see.
Burton Warren Hogle was born July 28th, 1873, near Big Rock, Scott county, Iowa, and died as above stated. His illness dates from February 1895, when the first symptoms of dreaded consumption appeared. He was constantly watched by the professional skill of his brother, Dr. G.W. Hogle and though he rallied from several severe attacks and was taken to other climates, complications arose however in his case making it necessary for him to return, the disease could only be temporarily checked until finally there was no strength left with which to wage the uneven battle and truce extended by the weary soul, peace came.
"Burt" came to Mt. Vernon when the family moved here in 1891 and two years later graduated from the High School with the class of '93. He was a popular favorite among his companions and won friends universally by his frank and genial manner. His departure is an irreparable loss felt by all who knew him. The shock caused by the announcement of his death, although not a surprise, yet when the end came, was a severe blow to those who from daily contact had learned to love and esteem him for his many excellent qualities of both mind and heart. It is hard to see a young man cut down just as he was entering upon the active duties of life but we remember that earth's mysteries are not heaven's blunders. The death of a righteous young man means the day's work done at noon, riches at twenty-four instead of seventy, honorable escape from life's burdens and disappointments. A sickness that opens heaven is a victory, not a defeat.
Through his protracted illness he was at all times cheerful and resigned to his fate. This was exceptionally marked, saying he was prepared to go or stay as God willed. As the end approached he met death calmly and fearlessly. He said good-bye to his friends as if going away on a pleasant journey. He made a few requests, among which he asked that a post mortem examination might be held and also requested that the Knights of Pythias, of which organization he was an honored member, attend his funeral in a body.
Besides his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Enoch Hogle, four sisters livings, Mrs. Andre of Manilla, Mrs. Botts of Neleigh Nebr., Mrs. Streby of Harrington Nebr., and Miss Stella Hogle, three brothers, Dr. G.W. Hogle, I.W. Hogle and H.S. Hogle mourn the loss of a brother.
The funeral services were conducted in the M.E. Church at 2:00 o'clock this afternoon. Rev. Dr. Stantz, the pastor, was assisted by Dr. Pratt, under whose influence "Burt" united with the M.E. church last February and to whom he was greatly attached. It was largely attended by personal and family friends, by the Knights of Pythias and the Amphictyon literary society of Cornell, of which latter the deceased was also a member, in a body. Beautiful flowers, loving and tender words, and hearted bleeding with sympathy marked the last moments.
The relatives from abroad who attended the services today were Mrs. Andre of Manilla, Mrs. C.C. Painter of Spirit Lake, R.M.J. Winey of Riggs and John Harrison of Vail.
Resolutions.
Cornell College, Nov. 4, 1897.
Whereas, in the dispensation of an All-wise Providence, our brother Amphictyon, Burton W. Hogle, has been called from his earthly home, therefore be it
Resolved, That we the Amphictyon Society, extend to the bereaved family and relatives our deepest sympathy and invoke the sustaining grace of God to aid them in their infliction.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of deceased, and also be published in the Cornellian and in the papers of Mount Vernon.
