He had been ill for several days from an affliction of the heart, but had been able to be about the house and no immediate danger was feared. The family had retired on Wednesday night and Mrs. Mudgett was awakened from sleep about ten o'clock and found Mr. Mudgett sitting up on the side of the bed. Almost immediately he fell back into her arms and after a gasp or two was dead. The funeral was deferred until Monday afternoon in order that a sister who resides in California and other relatives at distant points might attend, and all of them arrived with the exception of a brother at Spokane, Wash., who was ill and unable to come. In the death of Ed Mudgett the community has lost a good and useful citizen whose strong influence and forceful character was always exerted for the highest and best purposes. To his family the loss is irreparable and they have the deepest sympathy of all. Edward Mudgett was born in Western Ohio April 9, 1842. He moved from there to Indiana where he lived six years. In 1853 he moved to Jones county, Iowa, and in 1860 moved to southern Iowa. In 1861 he enlisted in the Third Regiment Iowa Cavalry, joining Co. L. of which his father was captain, and served till the close of the war. He was commissary sergeant for several years and in 1865 was promoted to 2nd lieutenant. He moved near Princeton in 1866 and moved to his place east of Lineville in 1884, where he lived until the time of his death with the exception of the six years he lived in Lineville. He was married to Margaret M. Linsey Nov. 18, 1869. To them were born six children, four boys and two girls, who survive him. He united with the M.E. Church south of Fairview about 20 years ago of which he was a member until the time of his death. He was a prominent citizen, and a good Christian man and we join his friends in mourning his loss. His funeral was preached by his pastor in the Lineville M. E. Church, South, and his body laid to rest in Evergreen Cemetery to await the resurrection morn. Peace to his ashes. The bereaved widow and children of the deceased express their heartfelt thanks for the kind assistance and sympathy extended to them by neighbors and friends in the time of their great sorrow and bereavement.
