Warren Sheaf (Warren, Mn) Thur Dec 13, 1900 pg 4

   We are in receipt of a letter from Frank Keiver,
announcing the sad death of his brother John,
which occurred at Butte, Montana, last Tuesday.
Mr. Keiver received the news by wire and details
are lacking. The father left Wednesday to look
after the remains which will probably be taken
here for interment. John Keiver was raised here
and will be remembered by nearly everybody. He 
was 16 years of age. He left here about two
years ago at the first call for volunteers in the
Spanish- American war and enlisted in the army
for one year. His company was sent to the
Phillippines, where it dod excellent duty in 
battle and garrison. After serving his term,
he received an honorable discharge and returned
to this country. He spent last winter in the
lumber woods near Hibbings, Minn., but left
early last spring to accept a position at
mining near Butte, where he met his death.
