Uncle Aaron Cox, as he was familiarly known by his neighbors and friends, passed away that morning at 4 o'clock. Mr. Cox had been ailing for about a year, but only recently had been bedfast, during which time he was a patient sufferer, always with a cheerful word for those about him. He was a good citizen and everyone who knew him counted him as a friend. He lived a life we might all emulate, a life that commanded the respect of all those with whom he came in contact. Aaron Cox, who lived in this vicinity since he came to Kansas in 1871, died at his home in this city October 25, 1924 after more than a year's illness. He was 81 years, 5 months, and 9 days of age, having been born at Wilmington, Ohio, May 16, 1843. Nancy Ann Murrell became his wife at Port Madison, Ohio, June 27, 1862. A few weeks later on Aug.1, he became a private in Co.D, 79th Regiment of the Ohio Infantry of the Union Army and served until the close of the war. Five sons were born to Mr. and Mrs. Cox: William B., John F., Charles E., Edward N., and James R., all of whom are living except John, whose death occured in December of 1916. Mr. Cox's home was broken up November 13, 1898, by the death of his wife. After several lonely years, he again established a home when he was married to Maggie Hulsey on Aug.17, 1904. To them were born two children, Aaron and Mildred. Besides his wife and children, Mr. Cox is survived by sixteen grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. His death is not only mourned by these, but by the entire community which has known and loved him as "Uncle Aaron" for many years.
