Ira Jacobs Dies

Ira Jacobs died at his home in Five Mile district 10:30 Monday morning,
December 3rd, and was buried in Eagle Valley cemetery at noon yesterday. He
had been afflicted with tuberculosis for several years and his death was due
to the ravages of that disease.

The funeral services were conducted by Rev. A. Thomas and were very
impressive.

Ira was the last member of the Ed Jacobs family, and besides the grief
stricken wife there are none but distant relatives to mourn his demise. He had
been a resident of the Five Mile district for several years, having proved up
on his homestead just a few weeks since, and though of a retiring disposition
was well known in this section.
