TABLE ROCK ARGUS, July 28, 1910. (pg.5)

Joseph Reuter, one of the oldest residents of Pawnee county, died at his home northeast of town on Tuesday night. He has been in poor health for some time and the disease and old age brought about his death. The funeral services were held in the Catholic church in this city at 11 o'clock this morning and the remains were buried in the Reuter cemetery. Uncle Joe, as he was known among his friends, was esteemed by all who knew him, he was a good citizen and a kind father, and will be greatly missed by his children. A more extended biography will be given next week.

JOSEPH REUTER

Joseph Reuter died at the home of his son Joseph, at one a.m. on Tuesday, July 27. He has made his home with this son since the death of his wife six years ago.

Joseph Reuter was a native of Luxenburg, Germany, where he first saw the light of day on the 10th of December, 1823. This made him 76 years, 7 months and 15 days of age, when death claimed him. When quite a young man he came to this country and took a homestead near Table Rock, residing continuously thereon during the forty-five years of his life in this country. Prior to leaving the fatherland he was married in his twenty-second year, and brought his wife and children with him to seek a new home where opportunities were broader. By dint of hard work and economy the pair prospered in their new home surroundings and the deceased was reconed among the well-to-do farmers of this section of Nebraska. There survive six children who came to bless this union, all of them being grown and among the active citizens in the communities in which they reside. The only daughter, Mrs. Peter Chartrow, and four sons, Nick, John, Jake and Joseph Reuter reside on farms in this vicinity, while the other son, Mike lives near Morril, Kansas. The only other relatives of the deceased aside from these children, is a sister, Mrs. Anna Rodmaster, of St. Joe.

The funeral services at the Catholic church in this city last Thursday, were conducted by Rev. Father Rex of Steinauer, a large number of friends and old-time neighbors being in attendance.

The sons and daughters have the sympathy of all, in their loss of a kind father. To the bereaved family, the best sympathy and consolation we can offer is the memory of his good life and kind Christian heart.
