Wheeler passed to test on last Thursday moring, being found cold in the embrace of death when his wife awoke in the morning.

The departed was born in Canada on July 13, 1833. He moved to Illinois and on December 6, 1855 was united in the holy bonds of matrimony to Miss Ceylina Poyer Who survives him and deeply mourns the loss of her life companion and support who through the storms and vicictudes of life has been her joy and comfort and shared with her the manifold blessings and sunshine that has strewn their pathway through the many years of their united pilgrimage. They moved to Audubon County in 1882 and settled on a farm east of town where they continued to live until 1895 ,when they moved to town where they have since resided enjoying the peaceful quietude of their home, being bountifully supplied and surrounded with the common comforts and necessities of life. He leaves behind a dutiful wife, three sons and one daughter and eighteen grand-children, besides many true friends and loyal associates who Deeply mourn the loss of a devoted husband, a kind and indulgent father and an appreciative Friend. He was a faithful member of the Christian church and was one of the many who worked days that he might see the new church edifice completed.
