William H. Stewart

William H. Stewart passed away at Memorial Hospital
Monday morning about 10:30 o'clock. He had been ill
since last fall, but later apparently recovered his
health and had returned to work, but was again stricken
with illness, the effects of which proved fatal.

The body was brought to the home on Vine street where
funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at 2
o'clock under auspices of Monticello Lodge No. 224, F.
and A. M., with brief services by Rev. T. L. McConnell,
and interment was made in McPherson cemetery.

William H. Stewart was born on a farm north of Fremont
on Nov. 18, 1867, and was aged 65 years, 1 month and 27
days at the time of his death. His parents were Stephen
and Martha Stewart, and his boyhood days were spent on
his father's farm.

In June, 1879, he was married to Miss Alice Hinton and
to them were born two children, namely, Carl Stewart and
Mrs. Carl Sollenberger, both of Cleveland both of whom
survive, together with his wife.

Mr. Stewart spent most of his life in this vicinity. For
many years he was janitor at the schoolhouse, where he
was known, loved and respected by every pupil. He was a
licensed engineer and for many years was one of the
engineers at the water-works plant. For the past few
years he has been the faithful watchman at the Universal
Paper Products Co. plant.

He was a member of Monticello Lodge No. 244, F. and A.
M., and of Clyde Chapter No. 90, Royal Arch Masons. He
was greatly respected by everyone who knew him, and was
a loving husband and father. The sympathy of many
friends is extended to the family in their bereavement.
