THE END COMES TO DAVID M. BLOOM
Passed Away at His Home in Seneca Saturday
David Martin Bloom, native of Pennsylvania, for many years identified with the best interests of Seneca community, passed away peacefully to his rest at his home Saturday afternoon, November 27, at 4:30. He had been under a doctor's care the past year and had failed rapidly since Monday. His death was due to a heart weakness and the infirmities of his 76 years. He had suffered attacks of asthma for years and had undergone two operations for cataract. As long as he was able, he was a faithful attendant at church and Sunday School. He lived a happy, useful, Christian life. He was a member of the Methodist church in Seneca. Had previously been affiliated with the Evangelical Association.
Born in North Millport, Pa., on August 7, 1861, he grew to manhood in that state. He was married on March 24, 1884 to Nancy Hill. They lived in Pennsylvania until after three children were born. Then they came west to Dubuque, Russell county, Ackerland, Leavenworth county and Valley Falls, Jefferson county, Kansas and from thence to Nemaha county, Kansas. A farmer by occupation, Mr. Bloom and his wife reared their family on farms in the Head and Ford communities, retiring about 13 years ago to a home in Seneca. There Mrs. Nancy Bloom passed away on July 5, 1923. On November 7, 1926, Mr. Bloom was untied in marriage with Amelia Kiefer.

Bloom and Cecil Bloom, Topeka. All of the children are here to attend the funeral held this afternoon at the Methodist church. Rev. J. Joyce Wilson, Mr. Bloom's pastor, conducted the service.
