Those drowned were Mr. and Mrs. John SEALS and child, two children named TANKLEY and a child named TACKETT. They were among a party returning home from a funeral in a wagon, containing altogether ten persons, it is said. We are indebted to Mr. R.B. Bryan, editor of the Mound City Clarion for these brief particulars. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/linn/obits/t/tankley1365ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.2 Kb
