DEATH CLAIMED
M. A. BROWN LAST
THURSDAY EVENING
At 8:30 last Thursday evening, M. A. Brown passed suddenly away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. R. B. Hodson. His death came as a shock to everyone in this community, as he had not been ill, although he had been taking treatments for some time, for heart trouble, as he had complained of pains across his chest.
On Thursday morning he did not feel as well as usual, and the doctor was summoned. He did not seem to improve, and about 8:30 that evening he suddenly passed away.
M. A. Brown was born on October 10, 1864, at Sabula, Iowa, and was the son of Jeremiah and Mary Brown. He had 12 brothers and sisters, and only one brother, Walter Brown, Woonsocket, S. D., and a sister, Mrs. Susan Putnam, of Rerdel, Florida, survive.
When he was eight years old the deceased moved to Plymouth County, Iowa. On Dec. 25, 1889, he was married Ida Kanago at Adaville, Ia., and in 1922 Mrs. Brown passed away.
Three children were born to this union, all of whom survive. They are Lester Brown, of Sioux Falls, Mrs. Fae Hodson, of Artesian, and Mrs. Lillian Morris, of Nevada, Ia.
In 1907 Mr. Brown and family moved to Esmond where they lived until 1911, when they moved to Artesian. In 1922 Mrs. Brown passed away, and in 1926 Mr. Brown made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Fae Hodson, where he has since resided.
Besides a brother and sister and his three children, he is survived by one grandson, Wendell Hodson, and a host of friends. He was sixty-five years, five months and ten days of age at the time of his death.
"Marve", as he was familiarly called by all who knew him, was a member of the local Masonic and I. O. O. F. Lodges. He had been a Mason for forty-three years, and was especially familiar with the work of the order, ever ready to do his part – and more, in the furtherance of Masonry, and striving to live up to the tenants of the order. He will be greatly missed by his associates in lodge work, in the community, and by the members of his family.
Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 1:30 at the Presbyterian church, Rev. Clayton officiating. The members of the Masonic lodge took charge of the services at the cemetery, and he was carried to his last resting place by six members of the Masonic fraternity.
