"RIDER- Mr. Gus Rider, an old and highly respected citizen of this section, died at his home in Goingsnake District on the 24th day of December. Mr. Rider was an "old timer" in the Cherokee nation, having lived here for more than 60 years--coming from the old Cherokee Nation in Tennessee when quite a boy. A singular coincidence is that deceased wrote to "Hickory" Starr, another "old timer," who lived in Delaware District, that he would spend Christmas with him, but as above mentioned, Mr. Rider died Christmas eve and Mr. Starr Christmas morning. It was always a source of pleasure for these old people to get together and tell reminiscences -- talks of early days about the "old nation" and here, too. THE STANDARD condoles with the friends and kindred of both these old patriarchs, now gone to their eternal rest."Source: Stilwell Standard Friday January 3, 1902
