Read More	One of the substantial citizens of Champaign county now living a comfortable life of retirement in his pleasant home in the village of St Paris, and the owner of a fine farm of one hundred and ninety acres in Mad River township, is Darius E Kite, who is a native of the county, his birth having occurred on a farm in Mad River township, on March 23, 1863. He is a son of David and Sarah Jane (Frank) Kite, both of whom were also natives of the county. David Kite was born March 21, 1829, and died on January 24, 1912, while his wife, Sarah Jane Frank, was born on July 22, 1831, and died on September 19, 1913. Their marriage took place in 1848, and to them were born eight children: Andrew, who died at the age of forty-three years, was a farmer of Mad River township; Louisa, living in St Paris; Charles B, of Greenville, Ohio; Lemuel of St Paris, who is mentioned elsewhere in this volume; William I who died in Dayton, Ohio; Darius E the immediate subject of this sketch; Eunice, the wife of HC Brokshire of Dayton, and Mary, who was the sixth in order of birth, who died at the age of eighteen years. David Kite was a prosperous and influential man in this section of the county and at one time owned six hundred acres of land in these parts. He was a Democrat in politics and stanch in his belief in the principles of that party, although never an office seeker. Darius E Kite was reared to manhood on his father's farm in Mad River township, receiving his education in the township schools, and assisting his father with the work of the home farm. When his parents moved to S. Paris in 1892, he took entire charge of the farm, which he successfully operated until the fall of 1907, when he and his family moved to St Paris, where they have since resided. On Mr Kite's farm in Mad River township was established the first cane sorghum mill in this section. This was known as the Kite sorghum mill and was operated very successfully for a number of years by Mr Kite. This mill was one of the old land-marks of the county, its use being discontinued about five years ago. On January 20, 1892, DE Kite was married to Mrs Allie (Taylor) Middleton, the widow of Arthur Middleton, of this county. Mr and Mrs Kite are earnest and devoted members of the Baptist church, in whose welfare they are deeply interested. Mr Kite holds membership in Lodge No 344, Knights of Pythias at St Paris, and takes an active interest in the work of this fraternal organization. He is a Democrat in politics, and has served as a member of the Mad River township school board. Mr Kite's life has been a very active one, and he has accomplished much that is worthy of note in the life of any man, he and his wife being highly respected and esteemed in the social and religious life of their home community.
