Hello, list! While I was in Lincoln I stumbled on the article below, which I thought might be of interest. I also found a few obituaries while looking for other obituaries. Now that we can make copies, it's easy to print up anything I find. Anyway, here are the ones I came across, if anyone is interested. I'll get them typed in for Bill to put on the web page eventually... Edith Shafer/Shaver Winston Bruce Woody Timothy Ryan Martha Ann Moore And here's that article... Lincoln Sentinel, Dec. 26, 1907 Lincoln is a fine little city of some thing less than two thousand inhabitants beautifully situated in a rolling plain with a gentle southern slope. There are several points of interest about this city which make it one of the most desirable residence towns in Kansas. There are eight churches in the town each of them having large commodious buildings … and good strong membership. The pastors of these churches are men of strong ability and untiring efforts in their field which has to do with the welfare of the soul. The Lincoln public schools are the peers of any in the state. The corps of teachers number 13 and the schools are carefully graded and are working along the line of a definite course of study. Vocal music and drawing are required in all the grades and the High school department has an enrollment of almost a hundred. The High school offers two courses: One a college preparatory, and the other a general course. The school has been issuing from The Sentinel press one of the neatest High school papers in the state. Nothing of the low or sordid is found in its columns. The K.C.C. [Kansas Christian College] is located here and noted for the character of its work, and the standing of its students is the envy of any school in the state. The President, George R. Stoner A.B., is one of the strongest young men in the state. The businessmen of Lincoln are progressive and up-to-date. The town can boast of one of the best furniture stores in the state, girding the alley and reaching from street to street. One of our general stores is a model for the general plan of its rooms and has been duplicated in many towns of the state while all of our merchants are up-to-date in methods and stock. The streets of our city are the cleanest and best kept of any city of its size in the state. The city owns its own water and light system and is well provided with light and protection from fire. The residences are generally neat and attractive with beautful lawns and ornamental trees. The vast quarries of lime stone near the city provide excellent building and paving material so that our business buildings are both neat and substantial. Our court house is a very beautiful structure and is the best kept public building in the state. Such is Lincoln, and her gates are open to you.
