| 6223 |  | Obituary- Henderson, Ralph M. HENDERSON - March 19th, 1884 at the residence of his mother, in Rossville. Mr. R.M. Henderson, of consumption, in the ---- year of his life. We little thought in writing the above obituary that it would be our painful duty to record in this one short week another bereavement by death of a friend and fellow citizen. Mr. Henderson has been sick for some time at Eskridge, Kan., and last week growing worse his relatives at this place were telegraphed for and brought him here, where he continued to grow worse until his death, which occurred about 10 o'clock Wednesday evening. His suffering has been very great and at times his mind wandered very much. He leaves a wife and three small children to keep green his memory in the years to come. It is in this crucible of sore bereavement that God burns out from our hearts the love of this world and consumes the skepticism which may have been lurking there. When the Redeemer died, Nature stood agast [sic]. She uttered her voice and proclaimed his dignity to the universe. Clad in preternatural darkness, she uttered her groans and refused to behold the sigh, and Man, guilty, rebellious man was the cause of that which shook heaven and earth. We are told to open our eyes and look, even through our tears at the glorious prospect which lies before us. Our loved ones who died in Christ are beckoning us from earth to join them in their consummate realization of immortality. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. O.E. Hart, at the Presbyterian church, after which the remains were followed to the cemetery by a large concourse of sorrowing friends and consigned to their last resting place. | |
