Martin Keup was buried Tuesday. The funeral was held at the Christian church with a very large attendance.
The sermon was preached by a German minister from Caledonia.
Herman and William Keup of Kewaunee, Wis., brothers of Martin, and two of his sisters, Mrs. Elmer Clarksean of Lockwood, Mo., and Mrs. Schibe from West Point, Neb., and also Elmer Clarksean were present at the funeral.
The father, mother and sister of the Clarksean's and Mrs. Keup came on Thursday from Chicago.
The parents will stay for a time with their daughter. Martin Keup was perhaps a little more than thirty years old and had lived in this county nearly eleven years.
It is no exaggeration to say that he had the utmost confidence and respect of everyone who knew him.
He had saved up some money and the family intended to move back to Wisconsin in the spring.
Mrs. Keup [Anna Clarksean] with her one remaining child will probably carry out this intention.
The sympathy of the whole community has been so abundant that the relatives of Mr. and Mrs. Keup have asked us to thank their many friends for the kindness shown and assistance given during this affliction.
