probably "The Index"
James F. Lindsey, husband of Eliza A. Lindsey of Urbana Mo passed to that rest 
which God hath for his own on Thursday, March 30, 1922.  He was born near 
Urbana Mo December 28, 1842.  He was educated in his home school formerly 
known as the "Old Crane Creek" school where his bright , studious desposition 
won for him universal favoritism and placed him among the first in 
scholarship.  He was a veteran of the Civil War of 1861, entering at the age 
of 19, serving in Company B, 8th M.S.M.  He was married to Eliza A. Montgomery 
October 1, 1868.  To this union were born eight children, five of whom 
survive.  The first 31 years of his married life was spent on a farm near 
Urbana Mo, after locating at Melrose, Bartette Co Ks.  In 1902 they moved to 
Marionville Mo after residing there four years, they moved to Brookline, Mo. 
residing there until 1919.  They moved to Hickory Co living the last three 
years near Urbana.  His illness lasted for a period of five or more years 
during which time every measure of relief was sought.  Nothing can express his 
suffering.  He bore his suffering with wonderful patience and fortitude.  The 
funeral services were conducted by Rev. Prawl.  At the age of 36 he became a 
member of the M.E. Church at Bowers Chapel. The deceased leaves a companion, 
five children and a host of relatives and friends.  It is finished, 
accomplished, the triumph begun.  He has finished his work. 
Shall we mourn our beloved one?
Or weep, that his face we no longer behold?
O! sweet is our hope in this moment of anguish,
We'll meet him again in the city of God.
His nephew, W. L. Lindsey
