Thanks to DStephens for the following:
Obituary (Hannibal (MO) Courier-Post, June 26, 1917)- William Stephens died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. R. H. Perkins, on Sycamore street, at 4:30 this morning. He was 70 years old. Besides Mrs. Perkins, he has a son in Quincy, and other relatives in Clarence, Mo. The remains will be sent to Clarence at midnight tonight and the burial will be in Clarence tomorrow afternoon.

Death notice (Madison (MO) Times, June 28, 1917)- William Stephens, aged 84 years, died at his home in Hannibal Tuesday morning at 4 o'clock, death being due to a heart trouble. The body was brought to Duncan's Bridge Wednesday and burial was made in the Phillips cemetery.

Note: I think the Madison Times obituary was correct because it listed the cemetery where William Stephens was buried. Also, William's son Elishe, who died in 1893, was buried at Phillips Cemetery.
