The Hoyt Sentinel Jackson County Saturday August 23, 1902 Odd Fellows' Death and Burial. James WASH died at the home of his father-in-law, W.L. Alexander, in Mayetta, last Saturday. Death came to him as a welcome relief after prolonged suffering, having received severe injuries in the Santa Fe shops in Topeka three years ago. During his long illness his Brother Odd Fellows of Topeka exemplified steadfastness of purpose in ministering to his wants. No less heroic was the untiring devotion of his wife. The funeral occurred on Sunday and was attended by representatives of the lodges of Hoyt, Holton, and Topeka. The delagation from here included, James H. Randels, E.C. Lyon, M.J. Schermerhor, Theodore Hogue, Bert Graham, Will Barker, W.G. Hancock, Elwood Maris, Sid Hedrick, S.R. Gilbert, James Passley, Geo. Maris, and Jacob Howald.
