Bright and Catherine Hay THE LARNED OPTIC-EAGLE Larned, Kansas Wednesday, January 29, 1879 DIED In Larned, Kansas, January 24th, 1879, of Consumption, Judge D. A. Bright, aged 42 years. Judge Bright was born and reared in Indiana. In 1875 he came to Pawnee county, Kansas, from Sedgwick county. When Pawnee county was organized he was elected Probate Judge, which office he held two terms. When A. O. Bruner was elected Treasurer, Judge Bright was chosen deputy, which position he held until that dreaded disease claimed him for a victim. His health failing him he went East to be doctored, but when he returned, his health being no better, he took a trip to the Rocky Mountains remaining about two months; when he returned to Larned he was unable to walk from his residence to the city. From this time until the time of his death he was confined to his house and latterly to the bed. Judge Bright took an active interest in Larned and everything appertaining to the building up of the town and county, and no one knew him but to like him. Being one of the first settlers of Larned, he saw, with pride, his adopted town grow from insignificance to the town of its present proportions. Four years ago Judge Bright was married to Miss Post of Johnson county, Kansas. He leaves a wife and three small children, and a brother here to mourn his loss. His remains were deposited in the Masonic Cemetery last Sabbath morning, at 10 o'clock, by Larned Lodge, No. 129, I.O.O.F. of which he was an honored and beloved member. Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian Church, Rev. R. M. Overstreet officiating. The church was crowded to its utmost capacity and only about one-half of the attendants could obtain admission. His remains were followed to their last resting place by seventy-five brother Odd Fellows and a large concourse of friends constituting a procession of over one mile in length. Judge Bright was a member of the School board, and the children of the school attended his funeral in a body, consisting of about three hundred scholars and teachers. In the loss of Judge Bright his wife has lost a loving and patient husband; his children a kind and affectionate father; his brother, a true brother; Larned a valuable and noble citizen; the Lodge a bright and honored member.
