J.H. KINZIE SUCCUMBS ENDING LONG ILLNESS
Large Number of Friends Gather to Pay Last Respects to Pioneer Who Was For Many Years Active in Affairs of Haxtun
J.H. Kinzie, 76, early settler and homesteader of the Haxtun community, died at the family home in Haxtun, last Friday morning folowing an illness of about two years. Cancer was the cause of death and during the past six months Mr. Kinzie suffered intensely. He had been active in community and church affairs at Haxtun for many years. He was a member of the Church of the Brethren at Haxtun and served the church in the capacity of deacon and minister over a long period of years. He was at one time a member of the Haxtun town council and served the community in various other capacities in a most creditable manner.
Funeral services for Mr. Kinzie were held Sunday afternoon from the Church of the Brethren. Music was furnished by a mixed quartet composed of Mesdames Lee Bamford and L.W. Taylor and Messrs. M. Mays Heiny and J.D. Birrell. The pall bearers were T.H. Lilly, H.W. Stryker, S.O. Switzer, Frank Amack, W.L. Decker and A.C. Heaston.
Because of the illness of the Rev. I.C. Snavely, the pastor, the services were in charge of the Rev. J.T. Coulter, who was assisted by the Rev. Roscoe Baker. The large number of friends and neighbors who gathered to pay their respects was evidence of the high esteem in which Mr. Kinzie was held by all who knew him.
The following obituary was read during the funeral services:
"Joel H. Kinzie was born at Rocky Mount, Franklin County, Virginia, December 18, 1856, and died at the family home in Haxtun, Colorado, December 16, 1932, at the age of 75 years, 11 months and 28 days.
"When he was 12 years of age he moved with his parents to Appanoose, Kansas, where he grew to manhood and at which place he was united in marriage to Emily Ann Patterson.
"In September, 1891, they moved to Sterling, Colorado, and nine years later they took up their residence upon a homestead four miles west of Haxtun and lived there until 1919, when they moved into town where he has since resided. He leaves to mourn their loss, eight children. They are: Dr. J.W. Kinzie, Mrs. Effie Clark, Miss Maude Kinzie and Mrs. Pearl Kyger, all of Haxtun, Colorado, Clark W. Kinzie, of Sterling, Colorado, Mrs. Mattie Gale, of Pueblo, Colorado, Mrs. Mary Schnell of Filer, Idaho and Fred C. Kinzie of Spindale, North Carolina, one foster daughter, Mrs. Agnes Kipp, of Haxtun, Colorado, and 21 grandchildren, one brother, D.A. Kinzie, residing at Quinter, Kansas and one sister, Mrs. Louisa Sherfy, of Pittsburg, Kansas, besides many other relatives and a host of friends who will mourn the passing of a loving father, brother and friend. His devoted wife preceded him to the Great Beyond on August 13, 1931.'
