Crellin, aged 27 years, died at the hospital in Joliet, on Monday morning, of consumption of the bowls. The remains were brought here on Monday afternoon and taken direct to the residence of the parents in Wauponsee. The funeral took place from the Wauponsee M. E. church on Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Bucks officiating. This is the second death in the family inside of one month, two brothers, bright, honest and upright young men, who would have made the world better for living it. Willis, though never strong, had not been seriously ill but for a short time. About two weeks previous to his death he went into the hospital at Joliet, but it was not willed that he should long be of this world. Morris Daily Herald, July 11, 1890
