Jack, as his friends all knew him, had been in ill health the past year or so, and while he knew he could not last long, yet he had led too healthy and busy a life to entirely give all work up, and had been about the barnyard Saturday morning and was sitting on the porch, hammer in hand, ready to remove the lid and honey from a bee hive when death came. He had the best skilled medical aid that could be had, but when our Father in heaven says come, then we must go. No man ever loved beautiful Chambers valley more than Mr. Butterfield did. He always tried to speak well of his neighbors and was always too busy trying to improve this beautiful land to which he brought his family five years ago, to speak ill of anyone or anything always as busy as the little bee with which he was working when the sudden end came. A favorite saying with him was: "The bee that hangs around the hive never gather any honey." Jack L. Butterfield was born in Warren County, Ill, February 19, 1858 and departed this life at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, October 3rd, 1925 at his home northwest of town. In 1879 he was married to Ida Martin and to this union eleven children were born: Hugh of Howells, Nebraska, Percy of Stanton, Kenneth of Fremont, Mrs. Ethel Baker of Torrington, Wyoming, Mrs. Edna Michaelis of Chambers, Mrs. Ellen McPherson and Mrs. Eunice WestPhalen of Fremont, Mrs. Sylvia Dodge of Stanton, Miss Goldie Butterfield of Chambers, and Charles and Victor who passed to the great beyond in infancy. A few years after the death of his wife Ida, He was married to Miss Rosa Kander and to this union were born four children; John and Elsie at home, the other two died in infancy, one of them being buried in it's mother's arms. Six years ago, he was married to Mrs. Anna (Kander) Schauerhamer of Stanton who now with his children mourn his death. Funeral services were held at the home at one o'clock Monday, Rev. F. R.
