Junkin, youngest brother of the editor of this paper, was briefly alluded to last week. It occurred on Tuesday of last week. The following is taken from the Fairfield Ledger, of which he was one of the editors: Robert Tupper Junkin, junior publisher of The Ledger, died yesterday shortly before 1 o'clock. Death came to him almost instantly and without warning, for he was apparently in good health. After dining at the home of Robert Israel, he was seized by an attack of coughing, ruptured an artery in the lung, and passed away almost in a moment. Mr. Junkin was the youngest child of the late William W. and Elizabeth Junkin. He was born in Fairfield June 23, 1871, and was educated in the city and at Parsons college. He served an apprenticeship in the Ledger office, as all of Mr. Junkin's sons did, and went to Orange City in 1883, where he did his first actual newspaper work. In 1891, with C. M. Junkin, he purchased the Reporter, and had its management for two or three years. When the war with Spain came he enlisted in the Sixteenth Company of the United States Volunteer Signal corps, was promoted to the rank of first sergeant for efficient service, and served until the cessation of hostilities. After his discharge from the army Mr. Junkin again resumed work on the Ledger and acquired an interest in the business July 1, 1903. He ceased his labors on this paper at 12 o'clock, noon, yesterday. Mr. Junkin was married in this city August 14, 1901, to Nell B. a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Israel, who survives him. Funeral services were held at the home on West Adams street Friday afternoon at 2:30.
