Death Of H. Overholser
B. H. OVERHOLSER died suddenly at his home in Paradise township on Monday evening, March 19. He had been in apparent good health and was at Codell the day of his death. In the evening he complained of not feeling well, and called for camphor, which his wife gave him. Shortly after Mrs. OVERHOLSER heard a peculiar noise in the bedroom and upon going in found her husband dead.

The deceased was born in Tennessee in 1821 moved to Kansas in 1884 and settled south of Codell, where he resided until death. He was a member of the Baptist church, having joined it early in life. For the past few years he has lived without connection with any church, but has lived a Christian life. His remains were interned in the cemetery near the Shiloh church. The sermon was preached at the residence by Rev. S. SHOTWELL and was largely attended.
