Chapman, one of the old and well known residents of LeMars, passed away at his home, 1000 Court street on Friday night. His death was due to hardening of the arteries. He had been in poor health the past few months, failing rapidly. Thurit Kelsey Chapman was born at Brimfield, Ohio, on May 21, 1838, and was a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Chapman. He was born on a farm and farming was his chief occupation in life. He grew to manhood in his native place and was united in marriage with Miss Mary E. Burt on July 11, 1861. They made their home at Brimfield until the month of March, 1865, when they came west and settled in Winnebago county, Illinois, where they lived until 1869 when they moved to Buchanan county and lived on a farm near Independence, Iowa. Mr. and Mrs. Chapman came to Sioux county in 1883 and bought a farm on the Plymouth and Sioux county line north of Seney where they resided until seventeen years ago when they retired from active farm work and began to take a well earned rest. Mr. Chapman joined the church early in life and while still a young man at Brimfield he joined the Methodist church and was a life long member. He joined the Order of Odd Fellows in Maurice in 1893 and on coming to LeMars was transferred to LeMars Lodge No. 255. He was the father of four sons, one of who died at the tender age of six ____. Three sons are left, with the widow to mourn the father's death. They are: Fred Chapman of Aurora, Iowa; Grant Chapman, of Maurice, Iowa; and Elam Chapman of Maurice. The later two conduct farms on the county line. He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. G. W. Bow, of Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Chapman was an honest, upright citizen, a good husband and father and was highly respected in the community where he lived. The funeral was held yesterday at the house at half past one and funeral services at two o'clock in the First Methodist church of which the deceased was a member, were conducted by the pastor of the church, Rev. E. E. ___ert.
