Guy H. Adams



Guy H. Adams died at Osawatomie last Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock. At

his bedside were his wife and parents. His death was peaceful.



Our readers are conversant with Guy's illness, which had its beginning

six years ago when he became ill from heat prostration, and during the

hottest weather every year since he has been ill.



The death of this young man was a severe shock to his young wife,

parents, sister and brothers, and the community in general. Guy was a

fine young man in all respects, manly, upright and honorable, and held

the respect and esteem of the community.                               



Guy Harrison Adams was born on the farm near Kincaid, Kans., Aug. 1,

1888, and died at Osawatomie, Kans., Aug. 16, 1913, aged 25 years and 15

days. With the exception of about one year when he resided at Lyndon,

Kans., he had always made Kincaid his home. At the age of 16 years he

was converted to Christianity and united with the M. E. church, living a

consistent Christian life. August 1, 1907, he was united in marriage

with Edna Chamberlain. Three children were born to this union, one dying

in infancy. He is survived by his wife and two children, parents, one

sister and four brothers, who have the sympathy of all for their sad

loss.



Funeral services were held at Lone Elm, Monday, at 2 p.m., conducted by

Rev. J. E. Woods of Turner, Kans., who was assisted by Rev. Shulenberger

of Kincaid. A large number of sorrowing relatives and friends were

present on this sad occasion. At the close of the service at the church

interment was made in the Lone Elm cemetery. Those from a distance in

attendance were Mr. Leland Chamberlain and Mrs. Alice May of Bedford,

Iowa; Mr. and Mrs. Evans and daughter of Parsons; Wm. Chitwood and wife

of Kansas City; S. Hellard and wife, I. G. Adams, E. J. Adams. Clyde

Adams and Mrs. Walter McRae of Mound City; Mrs. T. L. Richards, Lloyd

Richards and Miss Ethyl Richards of Centerville.
