Hays Free Press, Hays, Ellis County, Kansas
We must now record the sudden death last Friday of our old ciitzen (NOTE:this 
is way the paper spelled citizen), William B. Kirtland (NOTE:way paper spelled 
his name), always familiary known to everybody as "Bill Berry".
He came here 14 years ago and located in south Wheatland township and a couple 
years later married one of the daughters of Israel Grennell. Later they moved 
to Hays and built a cozy home on east Broadway in the Grinnell block.  He 
leaves a sorrowing wife to mourn his death and she requests us to return her 
sincerest thanks to all who were so kind to her in her troubles.  The funeral 
occurred Saturday afternoon and very largely attended, the Royal Neighbors lady 
lodge, which she belongs to, turning out in a body.  Rev. A. N. Smith conducted 
the funeral services and preached an elegant and touching sermon.

Additional Comments:
William Kirkland is buried in the Mt. Allen Cemetery, Hays, Ellis Co., KS.
