The last chapter, February 19, 1934, was at his home in Hepler, {Crawford County,} Kansas, after a lingering illness of one year. Mr. CHANEY went to Kansas in 1880, knew the life of a pioneer and the pleasure of seeing the prairies turn to roads, fields, pastures and orchards; saw the steady progress of the churches and school sand did his part in this work also; was spared to see his children located in homes of their own. Funeral services conducted in the M. E. church, Hepler, Kansas, Wednesday, February 21, 1934. The crowd gathered to pay the last tribute of respect being so large, the church annex was opened also. Rev. R. T. WHITE, the pastor, read the Twenty-third Psalm, and offered prayer. Rev. R. O. PENICK, of Ft. Scott, gave the sermon, his text being Timothy II, 4th chapter, verse 7, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." Rev. PENICK stressed the Christian character and the patient attitude of the deceased. A quartet sang 'Angel Band,' 'Abide With Me,' 'Hope Built on High,' and 'It Is Well With My Soul.' Friends and old neighbors from Kansas City, Guard, Heattville, Ft. Scott and Farlington attended. The high school attended in a group. The floral offering was unusually large. Interment in the Farlington Cemetery. He leaves to mourn his going: A wife, Mrs. Kate CHANEY; Mrs. Ora TURNEY, of Ft. Scott, Kansas; Mrs. Cora TIMBERMANN, of Ft. Scott, of Fort Scott, Kansas; Orson CHANEY, of Heattville, Kansas; Mrs. Elsie ORD, of Bosworth, Missouri; Raymond CHANEY, of Hepler, Kansas; grandchildren, and one great grandchild; two brothers, A.
