At his home near Nortonville, Kansas on December 13, 1909, Mr. Oliver Irish Langworthy, in the 60th year of his age.
The deceased was born in De Ruyter, Madison Co., N. Y., September 20, 1850, and was one of six children born to Robert and Eliza Langworthy. Two of these children survive: Mrs. Sarah Carlisle and Mrs. Thomas Zinn, both of Farina, Illinois. His parents moved to West Hallock, Ill., when he was a little boy. At the age of thirteen, he made a public profession of religion and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church of that place. In 1874 he moved to Farina, Ill., and the next year, on November 4, he was married to Catharine B. Quick of that place. They have been blessed with a family of six children, three sons and three daughters, all of whom are living. They moved to Nortonville, Kansas, twenty-eight years ago, where they have since made their home.
He suffered much during his last illness and had much time for reflection and prayer, during which time he claimed to have become reconciled to the will of God, and was ready to go. Besides his wife and children, he leaves a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn his loss.
