Obituary: Rock County, Wisconsin: John YOUNG ************************************************************************ Submitted by Ruth Ann Montgomery, April 2008 © All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ************************************************************************ Sad events come to us, too. you known now that a week ago Sunday, John Young, son of Thomas Young, who lives about two miles east of here, was accidentally shot while out hunting squirrels. None of us perhaps quite realize what that means to his father and mother, and other dear ones. But we feel it almost our own loss, since it has come so close home to us and many of our hearts yearn in sympathy toward the bereaved. John was a member of the Sunday School here, and upon the afternoon of his funeral, school was closed so that pupils might attend.
