At the proper age he was instructed in the state church of Germany and when 14 years old was admitted to communicant membership in the Lutheran church. In 1862 he was united in marriage to Barbara Hennes. To them were born 10 children, 4 of whom have already been called to eternity. In 1883 the deceased with his family migrated to America, settling down on a farm 3 1/2 miles south and west of Edon where he remained to the day of his death. It was here that he experienced his share of the settler's life. It was on this farm that he saw his children grow up. It was here also that his wife in 1901 was called from his side by death. The following year he was married to Mrs. Caroline Lump, who survives him. About 6 or 7 years ago he became afflicted with asthma, and his breathing difficulties served considerably to bind him to the house. He seems not to have left home except in cases on necessity pr unless he was urged to do so. On May 10, while returning from a visit in he dark, he was thrown from his buggy and injured and was compelled to lie on the ground for several hours of a cold night before help arrived. The pain caused by the fall and the exposure, the numbness of his body together with his breathing difficulties caused him considerable misery, yet it seemed as though he would recover, when pneumonia set in and rapidly carried him toward his grave. He died on Thursday, May 22, at 6:30 in the morning. He reached the age of 73 years, 7 months, and 29 days. He is survived by his second wife, 4 sons, and 2 daughters, a great many grandchildren and many other relatives. Funeral services were held on Saturday, May 24, from the Lutheran church. Interment was made in Edon cemetery. Found in Edon Commercial, Edon, Ohio, Friday, May 30, 1913. ------------------------------ X-Message: #5 Date: Sun, 27 Dec 1998 23:07:29 EST From: frog158@juno.com (Tina M Hursh) Subject: Misc.

Fulton Co., Ohio The following articles were published in 1896 in reference to the congressional district election, people's nominee for Congress: L. W. BROWN AT LAST, FREE SILVER MEN WILL HAVE A CANDIDATE - L. W. BROWN OFFERED A CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION - BROPHY ASKED TO STEP OFF THE TICKET - MR. BROWN'S ELECTION POSITIVELY ASSURED. The nomination of Stephen Brophy for congress by a packed gold bug convention has been the fly in the political ointment in this congressional district ever sine the campaign began. Mr. Brophy's course has added to the discontent and the result has been that a true out and out free silver man had been nominated. That man is Hon. L. W. Brown of Wauseon. Mr. Brown is a man of marked ability and can do more for Toledo in the next congress than any other living man. The campaign in this district has reached a point where it is evident that a genuine free silver man who in all other aspects fills the bill can be elected. The people's party committee therefore met Saturday and named Mr. Brown. The committee was authorized to take this action by the convention which recently met in this city. Mr. Brown has not yet been seen and it is known that he is not seeking such nomination. Indeed it is offered to him contrary to his wishes. But this is a time when honest and ernest men all over the country are making sacrifices and it is believed that Mr. Brown will take this view of it. The importance of securing a free silver congress as well as president cannot be overlooked.Mr. Brown will have the full indorsement and support of the Democratic party through its committees in the various counties. He is 2,000 votes stronger in Toledo than is Brophy. There can be no doubt of his election if he will consent to run. This nomination will put new life in the campaign. Let every votes no prepare to perform his whole duty. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ JUDGE BROWN - A Wauseon Man for Secretary of State - Said to Have been Selected at a Republican Conference - He Can Have the Honor for the Asking - Morey Talked of, but He Didn't Want It. Special Dispatch to Commercial Gazette 1896 Columbus, O. Feb. 23 - The conference of Republican politicians held in this city on last Thursday was exclusively mentioned in the Commercial Gazette of Friday morning. The purpose of this conference was to select and put forward a candidate for Secretary of State other than those already in the field for that office. Ex-Congressman Henry L. Morey, of Hamilton, was first fixed upon but it later became apparent that he was out of the question as he would not consent to make the race. Since then there has been much casting about for a candidate, and many names have been discussed by the prime movers in last Thursday's conference. A conclusion has finally been reached and a candidate for the office agreed upon in the person of Judge Brown of Wauseon. It is not know what his feelings are in the matter, but every inducement will be brought to bear on him to get him to make the race and the assurance is given him by the promoters of his candidacy that he will have a "cinch." It is said for Judge Brown that he is a gentleman of fine qualities. As an admirer expressed it tonight, he is a "four-time winner." Judge Brown's consent to permit the use of his name is anxiously awaited by the coterie of politicians who are behind his candidacy. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Another Richmond in the Field - Judge Brown of Wauseon Columbus, O.
