Friday, October 27, 1893. DODGE COUNTY NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS Volume II. 1893-1907 By: Tad Evans For Date & Obituary : See Page 583 Friday, Ocober 27, 1893 DEATH OF A GOOD MAN. Mr. W. E. Lowery Peacefully Passes Away. Last Sunday, at about the hour of 11 o'clock, Mr. W. E. Lowery peacefully passed away at his home eight miles west of Eastman. He had suffered considerably during the past ten months from a complication of diseases. Mr. Lowery was about seventy-nine years old, and was one of the best known men, and among the most prominent farmers in the county.. Besides a widow, he leaves nine children, all grown, to mourn his loss. Excepting one son who died in the war, Mr. Lowery was the first of his immediate to die. He was a good man, a good citizen and a good neighbor, and has been a consistent member of the Methodist church for many years. The body was brought to Eastman and laid to rest in Woodlawn Cemetery at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, Revs. B. S. Sentell and T. Rawlins conducting a short but appropriate service. The Times-Journal offers its condolence to the bereaved ones.
