Kansan, Friday, June 19, 1903
Shortly after five o'clock yesterday afternoon the soul of Captain F. D. Barnes passed to its eternal rest and Harvey county lost one of its most striking characters. For months the unequal battle has been in progress, the wonderfully strong and vigorous constitution of the sick man resisting with surprising degree of success the attacks of disease. The decline has been gradual but steady and friends have realised for a long time there could be no hope.
The death of this most highly respected citizen will be a severe loss to the community and without doubt be generally lamented. His rugged honesty, his well-known largeness of heart, his proved courage both moral and physical placed him firmly in the esteem and affection of those that knew him. Many will recall with tenderness incidents in his life that revealed his kind and sympathetic heart, though veiled by a rough exterior.
The funeral service will be held at the Barnes home four miles south-east of town tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock and no doubt a large number of Newtonians will attend. Rev. G. W. Cohagan will officiate and the burial will be in the city cemetery.

FUNERAL PROCESSION WAS NOT LESS THAN A MILE IN LENGTH
The funeral services for Captain F. D. Barnes last Saturday afternoon were made the occasion of a striking tribute of affection and esteem by the hundreds who have been glad to be numbered among the friends and neighbors. There was a very large gathering of people from the neighborhood, from Newton and from surrounding county, for Captain Barnes was well and even intimately known to almost every farmer in the county. The funeral services were especially affecting, Rev. L. M. Wiles preaching the sermon. The life of the deceased was marked by many virtues worthy of emulation and Rev. Wiles dwelt upon these qualities in a very impressive way. A choir composed of young people of the neighborhood rendered several appropriate songs.
The funeral procession to the Newton cemetery was one of the longest with which a resident of this county has ever been honored. The carriages containing the mourners and their sympathizing friends made a line not less than a mile in length. The services at the grave were brief and the body was then laid to rest. Messrs Rudolph Claassen, Frank Devlin, A. Gast, Henry Showalter, Henry Kellas, and Joshua Perkins, neighbors of the deaceased were pall-bearers.
