[MH Note: Wm. B., 3rd m. & Cynthia (Bond) Headley only had 2 children, Eva Blanch, b.1882; Charles Roscoe, b. 1885]. Charlie was born in Knox Co., Illinois, and came with his parents here in 1890, where he has since lived. He attended school in the home district and was a lover of home, scarcely ever being absent. He was a healthy and rugged boy up to three years ago, since which time he has been gradually failing, but kept about until the last few days of his life. Charlie was ever a good boy and had expressed his intention of uniting with the church at the late meetings held in the home school house. We have great consolation in knowning that he is in the hands of the loving Father above, and that the unerring Jesus is his eternal Judge and not the fallible mind of man. Our bereaved friend and neighbor leaves two brothers and two sisters and father and mother along with many more distant relatives and friends to mourn their loss. Friends in large number attended the funeral at the home of the deceased's parents north of Downs. The perfume of flowers and the consoling words of friends seemed to vie with each other in expressing sympathy. The floral offering and large attendance attested the large esteem in which our friend was held. The funeral was conducted by Rev. H.J. Kennedy, a former pastor of the family, Wednesday at 11 a.m. and interment was made in the Cox cemetery [AKA Oakdale Cemetery] northeast of Downs. The minds of his friends will ever be kept green with loving remembrances. H.J.K. * Received from: Dr. Marvin D.
