Webster City Tribune, pg. 3, col. 5, 22 March 1907
OBIT: Webster City Tribune (microfilm), pg.3, col.5, 22 Mar 1907 - Another 
soldier answers the last roll call.  Henry Scott died at his home three miles 
north of Stratford at four o'clock Sunday morning March 10, 1907.  The 
community was shocked as the news of this death spread over the neighborhood 
as few knew of his sickness.  He was stricken with paralysis about eight 
o'clock Saturday morning and remained in an unconcious condition till four 
o'clock Sunday morning when death relieved him of his suffering.
   Mr. Scott was a pioneer of Hamilton county having come here 37 years ago.
He leaves nine children to mourn his loss, seven sons and two daughters - all 
of whom were at his funeral except one son who lives in Nebraska.  His wife 
preceded him to the beyond some twenty years ago.
   Mr. Scott was an old soldier of the Civil War and always enjoyed the old 
soldier's meetings with much pleasure.
   The funeral was held from the McKinney school house at 11 o'clock Wednesday 
conducted by Rev. Benjamin of Stratford.
   Although the day was stormy a large number were out tp pay their last 
respects to an old friend and neighbor.
