Rose was born in Wayne county, Iowa on February 13, 1871 and died at the home of his brother, Walter Rose, of Tabor, on April 14, at the age of 62 years. At the age of two years Mr. Rose removed to Taney County, Mo., with his parents where he grew to manhood. He was married there to Miss Rowena Stout on January 4, 1891. To this union 10 children were born, one of whom preceded him in death. In 1900 the family removed to Lincoln County, Okla., and 14 years ago came to El Dorado where Mr. Rose had resided since. At the age of 19 years he joined the Methodist church and when about 30 became an ordained minister, serving in that capacity for about 30 years. Several weeks ago Mr. Rose visited his brother at Tabor where he died from heart trouble from which he had been suffering for several years.
