Burns of Denver, Colo.; Harry L. Young of Edgar, Nebr. and Frank who preceded his father to the Great Beyond.
In 1878, Mr. and Mrs. Young moved to Weeping Water, Nebraska, when they resided until twenty years ago when they moved to Edgar, Nebraska, where they lived the remainder of the time.

When a young man he joined the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Mr. Young was a man of cheerful disposition and his unique personality for him a host of near and dear friends. He loved the great outdoors and his haunts (sic) were numerous along the streams where he enjoyed to spend his time.
He leaves to mourn his departure besides his wife, children and grandchildren, many friends who have enjoyed his companionship.
Although he was a sufferer for a year, most of the time being confined to his home, he bore his suffering with patience.
Funeral services were held at the home, May 18, 1931, Rev T. S. Hughes pastor of the Presbyterian Church officiating, and the Presbyterian male quartet furnished the music. The floral offerings were beautiful.. Interment was made in the Edgar Cemetery.
The bereaved ones have the heartfelt sympathy of their host of friends.
