"George W. Osborn
Passing Away of an Old and Respected Citizen of Plattsmouth
DIED—Osborn, George W., at his home in Plattsmouth, Neb., on September 3, 1909, of a complication of diseases, aged 64 years 7 months and 19 days. Funeral Sunday, September 5, 1909, at the home, corner Rock and Tenth streets, Rev. Dr. Baird officiating. Services at 2:30 p. m. Interment at Oak Hill.
After an illness extending over quite a length of time, George W. Osborn, one of Plattsmouth's best citizens and a man highly respected throughout the community, passed to his reward yesterday. Mr. Osborn was a man whom every one knew to love and the news of his death was received with profound regret by a vast number of good friends. He has been in his lifetime the best of men, always faithful and conscientious to a degree and to his family he has always been a most careful father.
Born in Fulton, Mo., on January 14, 1849, he had lived here for several years when his parents removed to Illinois. Here he lived until war broke out between the states, when he entered the army, serving as a member of Company E, One Hundred and Thirty-nine Illinois volunteers. In the army he made a fine record as a soldier. As his later life showed, he was faithful to his charge and fought the good fight. Returning from his service in the army on February 27, 1865, he was united in marriage with Miss Mary C. Kirkman, who survives him. He came to this city many years ago, and in the course of a long residence he made a great many friends. In addition to the widow he is survived by three sons, Benjamin and Guy of New York city, and Everett of Omaha, and two daughters, Mrs. Della Long of Omaha and Mrs. Louise Dutton of University Place, Neb.
The funeral will be held tomorrow (Sunday), September 5, from the residence at the corner of Rock and Tenth streets, Rev. Dr. Baird delivering the sermon. Interment will be at Oak Hill cemetery."
