OBITUARY
"Charles E. Adams"
Charles E. Adams died January 28, 1890, aged 22 years, 3 days.
"John O. Adams"
John O. Adams died February 2, 1890, aged 25 years, 3 months, 12 days.
Charles E. Adams was born January 25, 1868. Most of his life was spent at his home on the farm until last September, when he entered the Commercial college at Terre Haute. He made unusual progress with his work, but returned home January 14, a victim of la grippe. Thursday night, January 28, he had a severe attack of pleurisy, which terminated in pneumonia, and finally in death Tuesday, January 28. His remains were interred in the Friendly Grove cemetery, Thursday, January 30.
John O. Adams was born October 21, 1864. His life was spent mostly at his home, except a part of one year which he spent in Kansas. Friday night, January 24, he took pneumonia which caused his death Sunday, February 2. Tuesday, February 4, the Rev. Mr. Galy delivered the funeral oration of both brothers, at the Friendly Grove church, after which the remains of John were taken to the cemetery and laid beside Charlie on the hill, where these two brothers, separated only five days, lie sleeping.
These two young men were sons of Mr. And Mrs. Harvey Adams, living near Jessup, Parke County, Indiana. Both were noble young men, loved and respected by all who knew them. As sons, brothers and friends, they were kind and obliging. Their loss is not only to their family but to the community in which they lived. Truly "Death loves a shining mark." It is hard to part with them, yet we feel that they are far happier, and have only gone before, "God weaves a web called Life. Death is but a broken thread in the wool. The Weaver gathers the tangled ends."
Theirs was one of the happiest of homes; father, mother, three brothers and three sisters, the circle complete. Now, only one brother is left, Arthur, aged 9 years. The bereaved family have the heart-felt sympathy of many friends. May God bless them and help them bear their affliction.
SAD DEATHS
Two Promising Young Men Victims to La Grippe
On Tuesday, February 4th, Mrs. Noyes White, of this city, attended the double funeral of her two nephews, Charles and John Adams. They were the sons of H. M. Adams, who lives near Jessup, Parke county. They were aged twenty-two and twenty-five years, respectively. Charles was a student of the Commercial College at this place when he fell a victim to La Grippe. He died the fifth day after taking to his bed and John on the ninth day of his sickness, with the same disease, a little less than four days apart. They were both honorable and well-respected young men. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Galey, of the Baptist church, at Friendly Grove church at Jessup, and was very largely attended. The father, mother, three sisters and little brother have the sympathy of their many friends.
