Woods one of the old and respected pioneers of this section and one of the few surviving veterans of the Civil War answered the unexpected call of the angel of death here, Tues morning, Dec 7, 1909. The funeral took place from the family residence Thursday morning. Requiem Mass and services were held at St. Joseph's church. Interment at St. Joseph's Cemetery. The deceased was born in Indiana, Nov 8th, 1842. He began his journey west in early years, arriving in Iowa with a railroad construction gang when he was only twelve years old. The fact that he was with this gang would suggest that he began to rely upon his own energy and labor at an early age. His coming to Iowa 57 years ago, he came when this territory was nothing more than a wilderness. His experiance in this country would correspond with those on the fronteer. He has experienced all the trials and struggles with which the older settlers were forced to undergo. Mr. Woods was among the few of the surviving veterans of the Civil War. He entered the services of Uncle Sam at Burlington inlisting in Company E, 35th Iowa Infantry, and served his country for three years. His love for his country and patriotism were of the highest. He was married to Catherine Lantry at Marengo, Iowa Aug 27, 1873. To this union were born ten children who with a loving wife survive him. The children are Mrs. R.F. Bevins of Petersville, Iowa, Mrs. D.W. Dwyer, Mrs. Henry Kuhny, Miss Kate and Thomas of Cedar Rapids, Mrs. Lou Swope, of Broken Bow, Nebraska, Miss Mary of Des Moines, J.B. of Gregory, SD, and Chas and Willie at home. Beside these he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Griffin of this place, Mrs. Cleo Peppers of CA, John of OK, Marion of this county, Vall of Chicago, and George near Des Moines. As a friend and neighbor he was all that could be expected of the most true. He was ready and willing to lend a helping hand to those in need, he was courteous, honest, truthful and faithful. While he was raising of a large family, yet world came to him as a pleasure and enjoyed life. He carved his words and spoke of nothing but what he knew to be true, he weighed question concerning him and his interest and those of his fellow man, and once arrived at a decision could not be moved by nothing but reasonable evidence. He plied out of his government, bowed submission to the Catholic Church and carefully interested himself in the welfare of his family. He goes to his Eternal home leaving kind words on the lips of those who know him and sympathy for those who survive him.
