HORATIO MARSDEN

Albion - Horatio Marsden, 82, a resident of this village the
last 21 years, died at 6 a.m. Tuesday in his home of a heart
attack suffered three days ago. A son of Joseph and Eliza
Cooper Marsden, pioneers of Albion Prairie, he was born April
1, 1858, on the Marsden homestead near Busseyville.  As a
young man he attended Albion Academy and worked in the Grange
store in Edgerton.  He was a member of the Albion Prairie
Primitive Methodist church and later the Methodist Episcopal
and Methodist church of Edgerton. Mr. Marsden was one of the
founders of the Albion Cooperative creamery.  His many
kindnesses endeared him to his neighbors and friends, whom he
always met with a friendly smile.  He seldom missed calling
with a bouquet of flowers on friends who were ill. On New
Year's eve, Dec. 31, 1888, he married Eva Collins of Edgerton,
who had come there from Missouri.  They settled on a farm he
purchased on Albion Prairie and which was their home for 30
years.  Since purchasing the home in the village in 1918, Mr.
and Mrs. Marsden had conducted a floral shop.  They celebrated
their golden wedding anniversary Dec. 31, 1938. Survivors are
his wife; three sons, Lawrence W., a farmer just west of the
village; Roy H., Madison, and Kenneth G. Marsden, vice
president of the Ziegler Finance corporation of West Bend,
Wis.; four brothers, Thomas, Leonard, Walter and Henry
Marsden, all of Albion Prairie; one sister, Mrs. E. G. Bussey,
Edgerton, and seven grandchildren. Funeral arrangements have
not been completed.
