Obituary of Jesse I. Yeargin

From 19 July 1905, Clark County (IL) Herald


The following obituary notice from Clarksville, Ill., has been
received at the Beacon office and will be a source of interest
to many readers of this paper.

Once more the reaper death has visited this community and
taken a kind, loving husband and affectionate father in the
person of Jesse I. Yeargin.  He was born in Elbridge, Edgar
coutny, July 30, 1871, and departed this life July9, 1905, at
his mother's home in Clarksville, Ill., aged 33 years, 11
months and 21 days.  He was married to Cora Millhouse February
10, 1897, and to this union was born one child.  He leaves to
moun his death, a wife, son, mother, stepfather, two sisters,
two brothers and a host of sorrowing relatives and friends.
The deceased has been a sufferer from cancer for the past few
years, but had never thought his trouble serious till the last
few weeks, when he realized that his days were numbered.  He
made ample preparations to meet his God and trusted inthe
Saviour as his Redeemer.  So we do not weep as those who have
no hope, but rather look beyond the sky and feel that our
loved one is there sweetly resting in the shadow of His wings.

The funeral was conducted at the Baptist church of Clarksville
under the auspices of the Odd Fellows.  Funeral services were
held by Rev. Holly of Grandview and the interment took place
in the cemetery that joins the church.--Paris Beacon
