Called in the Forenoon of Life
Erasmus Barnes, who was living on the Grant Gallaher place five miles southeast of town, was born in East Tennessee, June 12, 1883.
He died at his home Wednesday, July 14, 1915, being only a little more than thirty two years of age.
He was married to Mrs. Emma Jurgeson, June 16th, 1910, at Arlington, N. D. Two children came to gladden the home. Violet who is seven years old, and Stanley, only five months, who, with the wife, survive him. He also leaves a mother four brothers, and two sisters, whose ears are never again to be greeted by his familiar footsteps, and who will mourn his untimely death.
He had been in poor health for more than a year, but he was ambitious, and his love for his little family had prompted him to over-exert himself in the eager support of them. Until finally he was attacked with acute pneumonia, and after battling heroically for thirteen days, he was forced to give up the struggle, and give up his life ore he had reached the noontide. A short time before his death he took his little baby boy in his arms, and said, "God bless you, Stanley." He seemed to know that soon the little one would be without the are of a father. The family express themselves as appreciating the fact that they were living in the midst of so many and such kind neighbors, who lid everything that kindness and sympathy could suggest in this lime of. their sorest need.
The funeral services were held at the home Friday afternoon, conducted, Rev. J. C. Williams, of Spencer, and interment was made at Riverside. We find our sympathy going out to this family because the deceased and this editor first saw the light in the same state, and in that the family are deprived of his present when they need him most, and when he was yet in the early summer of his life. But the sun still shines, and the summertime is not gone
