The deceased was buried Wednesday at 2 o'clock p.m., the funeral services being conducted by Rev. Geo. HAGEMAN. He had been a victim of that life-taking disease, consumption, for many months, which had been by slow degrees performing its deadly mission on the vitals of this promising young man who was just springing into manhood. But the disease has accomplished its object and caused another human being to lay down his life at the altar of consumption, who will nevermore trod this earthly sphere, but being purt in mind and heart, will tread the shores of that mystical beyond, that knows no disease, that fosters not weakness and that is not heir to anything destructive. The family which the departed was an affectionate member, receive the deep sympathy of unnumbered friends, whose kind deeds and consoling words are at this time things of worth. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/washington/obits/f/flennike144ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.6 Kb
