DIED

CONKLIN - In Blue Earth, Minn., Monday morning, June 10, 1907, 

Samuel Austin Conklin.

  Thus another early day resident of the city joins the silent majority. 

The deceased was born in Zanesville, Ohio, November 22, 1851. In 1857 the

family removed to Clintonville,(Clinton) Ills., and from there to Blue 

Earth in 1871, where his father was engaged in the clothing business for 

some years. In 1879 the deceased was married to Miss Minnie Johnson,

the latter passing to her final reward in the year 1895. To this union 

two sons, Rial T. and Floyd R. were born and survive them.

  "Oscar", as the deceased was familiarly known among a wide acquaintance 

in this county, was a man of excellent traits of character and his death 

is mourned not only by surviving relatives but a large circle of 

friendships formed during his thirty-six year residence. Besides the sons, 

he is survived by three brothers - J.R. of Galesburg, Ills., I.O. of Sioux

City, S.T. of Fairmont, and two sisters, Mrs. H.A. Snell of Bloomington,

Ills., and Mrs. S.S. Rhodes of Indianapolis, Ind.

  The funeral will be conducted from the M.E. church tomorrow afternoon 

by Rev. T.A. Jones. The Workman lodge of which the deceased was a member 

will attend in a body.
