“Death of Joseph Harkness

   Joseph Wheeler Harkness passed away at the home of his parents in Paradise
Valley, Sunday Morning June 27th 1915, aged 18 years, 8 months and 26 days.
   Joseph Harkness was born at Versailles, Pennsylvania October 1, 1896.  He was
the fourth son of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Harkness and besides his bereaved parents
leaves five brothers to mourn his loss.  He was a promising young man, well
beloved by all those who knew him.  His death is particularly sad, following as
it does five months of that of the only daughter of the family, Mrs. Mazie
Musser, who died in February of this year.  Joseph had been sick for almost a
year, contracting the dread disease tuberculosis last year while working in the
hay field.
   The funeral services were held at the home at 9:30 o’clock, Monday morning,
Rev. M. O. Brink officiating.  The remains were then born to the Oak Hill
cemetery, San Jose and laid to rest near those of his sister. "
