The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday April 16, 1897 In Memorium J.S. DENNISON was born in the state of Kentucky on the 21st of Nov. 1841; died at his home in Spring township July 2, 1897. He came to Harper county with his family in May 1881. Mr. Dennison had been suffering for years with serious troubles, terminating so seriously that two delicate surgical operations had to be performed. He lived but a few hours after the second one. He was perfectly rational to almost the last moment. He assured his family that he had no fear of death, that he had made his peace with God, and could die in full hopes of an immortal ressurection. He was the father of seven children, two died in early boyhood. The living children are Mrs. H.HOARD, Edgar and Geo. Dennison, of Spring township, and Mrs. Elmer YOUNG of Wakomis, Ok., and Miss Myrtle who still remains with her mother. Mrs. Dennison and her family have indeed been sorely afflicted, this being the fourth death in the family during the past year, but while they mourn they recognize an "All wise God" and bow their heads in submission to His Divine will. Mrs. I.L.P. Card of Thanks. We wish to express our gratitude to all who aided us in our last great sorrow; to Rev. Childs for gentle service and words of tender sympathy. Mrs. J.S. Dennison and Family.

The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday July 9, 1897 At Rest. Mrs. Mary L. KENNEDY, died at the home of her brother, J.E. DRURY in this city on Saturday morning July 3. Mrs. Kennedy was born in Cardington, Ohio, and was 30 years old at the time of her death. She was the wife of Ed Kennedy, a conductor on the M.K.& T. railroad, and they made their home at New Franklin, Missouri, and the lady was here on a visit for her health at the time of her death. She was a victim of tubercular trouble and was a remarkable patient, never giving her attendants unnecessary trouble and always doing all she could to cheer up those dear to her. Life was dear to her, yet she expressed an anxiety to go, because of the trouble she thought she was making by her protracted illness. She had the services of the best physicians, good nursing and the constant care of loved ones, but the disease is unrelenting and death has claimed another that was of unusual worth here. Among the warm friends acquired by the deceased during her residence here was Rev. R.B. ENGLE of the Methodist church, and it was her request that she should join his church and that he should preach h! er funeral, and both requests were complied with, the funeral taking place at the family residence Sunday afternoon, the interment following in Forest Park cemetery. Mrs. Kennedy while a comparative stranger in Anthony and an invalid, made many warm friends who will with the family mourn her death. The husband, the mother, sisters, and brother all loved her for her true worth, and they are the afflicted ones; to them The Bulletin extends the sympathy of the community.

The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday July 9, 1897 Crisfield. The Santa Fe weed burner passed over the road here one day last week. It did its work well. Mr. PULSE has started out with his threshing crew. He has a good separator and has and will do good work with it as he has the experience of several years. The wheat and oat harvest is a thing of the past here, the yield will not be very large but we rejoice with the rest of Harper county in their abundant wheat crop. Our part of the county is better adapted to stockraising. Messers L.M. PRESNAL and S.A. STOUT have mowed down the weeds along the public road between their farms. Now let all other farmers do likewise and the weed crop will steadily grow less with each succeeding year. Last Thursday afternoon while stacking wheat for Arthur MADDOX, M.W. SHORT had a sudden attack of cholera morbus and congestion of the brain caused by the excessive heat of the day and drinking too much water. He was very sick for a few days but is recovering slowly at this time. The doctor says he must remain in doors for a few days yet. C.F. WARE who lives west of her 2 1/2 miles, has about 90 head of hogs. The hogs were attacked with the cholera last week. He has about 15 head of sick hogs and 3 died, and more are dying. He fears that he will lose his entire herd. He had taken great precautions to prevent the disease, but it seems that it was all to no purpose. The loss will fall heavily on him. He is a fine man in every respect and we sympathise with him in his loss. Mrs. Olive LESTER, son of J. A. LESTER of near this place, returned home from Central College, of Fatyettville, Mo., on last Wednesday, where he spent the past five years in that college. He recently graduated from that college with great credit and high merit and is now a professor of Mathamatics, Latin and Greek. He has accepted a position as instructor in Latin and Greek in a collee in Arkansas, and will begin his labors there in September. Mr. LESTER possesses all the qualities that go to make up the model man and we predict for him a bright future in his life work.
