In his youth he joined the Methodist church and later became a member of the Presbyterian church at Cadams, Nebraska. He was united in marriage to Elizabeth A. Van Fossen February 17th 1885, at Compher, Ohio. They came to West Branch, Iowa, where they lived for a short time. In March, 1886, they moved to Nuckolls county (sic), where they established their home, living in the vicinity of Cadams. He was a successful farmer and stock raiser and endured many of the hardships of the early settlers. In 1913 he entered the ministry and became a local pastor of the Presbyterian church which cause he served faithfully for nine years, at which time he was obliged to retire on account of failing health of his wife who preceded him in death in 1925. To this union were born five children: William J. and Henry R. Day of Cadams; Mrs. H.S. Koken of Bird City, Kansas; Mrs. R.H. Ellison of Salina, Kansas; and Mrs. C.H. Crawford of Scotia, New York. Besides these he leaves to mourn his departure three sisters: Mrs. Sarah Garber of Bunker Hill, Indiana; Mrs. Martha J. Rowlen of West Liberty, Iowa; and Mrs. Anna Heath of Wast Liberty, Ohio; and many other relatives and friends. Funeral services were held from the Cadams Presbyterian church on Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock by Rev. Neil Stewart of the United Presbyterian church of Superior. The Scripture lesson was from the fifteenth chapter of First Corinthians and the second and twentieth chapters of Revelations. A large and sympathetic audience was in attendance. Interment was made in the Evergreen cemetery at Superior beside his beloved wife. FATHER Used to wonder just why father Never had much time for play. Used to wonder why he'd rather Work every minute of the day. Used to wonder why he never Loafted along the road an' shirked; Can't recall a time whenever Father played while others worked. Father didn't dress in fashion, Sort of hated clothing new, Style with him was not a passion, He had other things in view. Boys are blind to much that's going On about 'em day by day, And I had no way to knowing What became of father's pay. All I knew was when I needed Shoes I got 'em on the spot; Everything for which I pleaded Somehow father always got. Wondered, season after season, Why he never took a rest, And that I might be the reason Then I never even guessed. Saw his cheeks were getting paler, Didn't understand just why. Saw his body growing frailer, Then at last I saw him die. Rest has come. His taks were ended, Calm was written on his brow; Father's life was big and splendid, And I understand it now. -- Edgar A. Guest. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our appreciation of the many acts of sympathetic kindness tendered us during our recent bereavement. W.J. Day and family, H.R. Day and family, Mrs. H.S. Koken and family, Mrs. R.H. Ellison and family, Mrs. C.H. Crawford and family. The Nelson Gazette, Thursday, February 20, 1930
