Influenza Claims Another Victim in Well Known Young Farmer. The people of this community pause today to drop a tear in memory of one of our best known young farmers, Nile E. Hight, who died Tuesday of this week at his home near Yuma and whose funeral is held this afternoon. He suffered an attack of Influenza nearly two weeks ago, and pneumonia developed. His condition speedily became critical and after a brave struggle he passed away. Other members of the family were also attacked by the disease and at this time his wife is still under the doctor's care and their little son, Benton is in a critical condition. Nile Ellsworth Hight was born November 18th, 1888, on the Hight farm 3 miles south of Jamestown. He passed out of this life March 18th, 1919, at the age of 30 years and 4 months. His boyhood days were spent at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. P.A. Hight, and he was educated in the local school where he proved a bright and adept pupil. At an early age he was known throughout the neighborhood as a boy devoted to his parents and sisters and as one thoroughly trustworthy and reliable. On May 6th, 1913, he and Miss Irma Cunningham were united in marriage. To this union two children were born; Benton, who is now 5 years of age and Mary, aged 13 months. He is survived by his wife, two children, his parents and three sisters. The sisters are: Mrs. Laura Barnum, of Marysville, Kansas; Mrs. Freda Abbey, of Jamestown, and Mrs. Ethel Sanford, of Jamestown. Besides these of the immediate family, there are numerous other relatives and a great number of friends who mourn his death. He was a member of the Jamestown Lodge No. 227, A.F. & A.M., of Concordia, Chapter No. 45, Royal Arch Masons, and of the Jamestown Woodmen Lodge, known as Forest Capt No. 545. In the death of Nile Hight this community loses one of its very finest young men. He was everything that a good citizen should be-honest, truthful, reliable and dependable in every way, a good neighbor, a true friend, a man who was respected and greatly admired by all who knew him. In his home life he was true to the highest ideals of American manhood. Of him it can truthfully be said that he has fought a good fight and has kept the faith. Funeral services were held this afternoon, at the Hight home, conducted by Rev. Wickman, of Concordia. Interment was made in the Fairview cemetery. Members of the Jamestown Masonic lodge had charge of a short service at the grave. (transcribed by Judy Mayfield) June 2020
