CLOTHER--August 27th, of paralysis, C. D. Clother, aged nearly 76 years. Mr. Clother was a native of York state, and came west in 1855. In 1859 he removed to Platte county locating on a farm south of the Loup. In 1867 he was elected sheriff of the county, holding the office one term. In 1869, he, with his son George, erected the Clother Hotel, of which he had continued to be one of the proprietors. Mr. Clother had many good qualities--he was very tender-hearted and generous-minded; he was very strong in his friendships, and had a bluff, hearty way that always ingratiated him with the guests of the house. The funeral took place Saturday last from his residence, and his remains were followed to their long home by a very large concourse of friends and acquaintances. Peace to his memory.
