| 8051 | Obituary of Albert G. Kennon For quite a number of months it has been the fortune of A.G. Kennon, whose home was just north of Corning to be a sufferer from nervous prostration and other diseases. He has required the constant attention of strong men, both day and night for many weeks. At the hour of 3 o'clock a.m. on Monday, March 10th, 1802 (sic), the angel called Death, came to his relief and his spirit passed to the Grand Master above. Mr. Kennon lived for many years in the township of Nodaway ere removing to his late home. From the rough ashler in the quarries, he became as a finished corner stone of the building. Obituary of Albert G. Kennon Called Home Death of an Aged and Highly Respected Citizen Last Monday For some weeks the death of A.G. Kennon has been daily expected. For several years he has been failing in health and about three months ago he was taken much worse and never regained his strength. He said in the fall: "I do not expect to live through the winter." His friends thought his pluck and energy would pull him through, but he contended it would not. The disease that caused his death was the result of la grippe, contracted several years ago, and for the past few months suffered a great deal of pain and he welcomed the peaceful end of a long and useful career which came last Monday morning at the advanced age of 71 years, 2 months and 21 days. The subject of this sketch was born in Plattsburg, N.Y., Dec. 20, 1830. In 1853 he was married to Miss Elizabeth Garrett who died May 14, 1887. They moved to Iowa in 1869 and located on a farm near Nodaway. To this union was born two children. F.A. Kennon of this city and Mrs. Clara Worley of Albany N.Y. On Nov. 5, 1888, Mr. Kennon married Miss Sarah C. McClelland and in 1890 they moved to Corning where he has since resided. To this union was born three children Ruth, Elizabeth and Helen. He has been a shrewd and successful farmer, a thorough-going wide-awake citizen, with strong convictions and unquestionable courage. For a number of years he was treasurer of the Adams County Mutual Insurance association. Politically he was a strong advocate of democratic principles. In his youth he became a member of the Presbyterian church. On coming to Iowa he became an attendant and supporter though not a member of the Cumberland Presbyterian congregation located near Nodaway. Mr. Kennon was a member in good standing of the Masonic order and the local lodge attended the funeral in a body and participated in the funeral exercises. The services were held at his late home in Corning at 10:30 this morning. Rev. M.V. Higbee preaching the sermon from the text chosen by Mr. Kennon himself, I Corinthians xv:22, "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." | KENNON, Albert Gallatin (I502)

| 8053 | Obituary of Amelia Chapin LaRue The community was saddened Saturday by news of the death of Mrs. Franklyn LaRue, which occurered the night previous. She had been sick less than a week, having been confined to her bed only since the Sabbath before, and in the morning she had seemed to be in her usual health. Her death resulted from fever of the lungs with the complication of heart trouble. The funeral was held at the home Sabbath afternoon at 3 o'clock, the services being conducted by Rev. M.V. Higbee assisted by Revs. T.D. Ewing and J.A. Lovejoy. The remains were laid to rest in Walnut Grove cemetery. Amelia Chapin was born in New York and was seventy-five years of age. Hers had been a life of activity of mind and body and even down to the last days she was interested in all that pertained to the welfare of those about her. She was the mother of eight children, four of whom died in childhood. Those surviving her are H.H. and F.L. LaRue and Mrs. Fred Kennon of this city and Miss Myra LaRue of Omaha. Twenty-eight years of family life have been spent in and near Corning. Mrs. LaRue was a member of the Presbyterian church and had ever taken an earnest interest in its progress. She was a woman of serene and cordial temperment and in all the relations of life did more than her full duty. To her aged companian who has lost the helpmate of a life time and to the sons and daughters who have lost a loving mother the entire community tenders its sympathy. Obituary of Amelia Chapin LaRue The sudden and sad news passed around from person to person at an early hour on Saturday morning that Mrs. LaRue, of north Corning, had died during the night of Friday, January 4th 1901. Mother LaRue, as her friends loved to call her, was a kind neighbor, a loyal wife and a loving mother. Columns of type could not tell more in expressing her daily life. Her immediate family consisted of H.H. LaRue, the lumber merchant; Frank L. LaRue, president of the Corning Savings bank; Mrs. Fred Kennon, and Miss Myra LaRue as her children and her honored husband. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon with a large attendance. The GAZETTE tenders its heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family. Her children have met with the greatest loss that can ever befall them. While it is true they have reached an age of manhood and womanhood, they will find, as others have, that no one can take the place in their hearts and homes of a mother who has gone to the other shore. | CHAPIN, Amelia Wells (I523)
