    Walter Clay Bond
    Walter C. Bond died about 3:00 o'clock Tuesday morning at his home in the west part of the township from a severe attack of convulsions which developed early the previous evening.

    Mr. Bond had been progressing in satisfactory manner toward recovery from a paralytic stroke suffered several months ago while he was residing in St. Marys. His sudden turn for the worse and subsequent death was a surprise to his friends over the community.

    Funeral services were held this (Thursday) afternoon in the Rossville Presbyterian church, conducted by the Rev. H.L. Nelson of Topeka.

    The body was interred in the Rossville cemetery where the Masonic burial ritual was exemplified by Hesperian Lodge No. 112. The pallbearers were: Messrs. A.L. Ruff, Sherman James, and C.E. Van Vleck, of Rossville; T.J. Byrnes, E.H. Bushey and Mr. Collins, of St. Marys.

    In the death of Mr. Bond, the second in the Bond family in about two months, Rossville has lost another of her good substantial citizens, who has lived here since early boyhood and helped develop the farm on which he died from a raw state to its present high state of cultivation.

    He was a native of Middlebourne, West Virginia, where he was born February 18, 1863. At the date of his death he was 62 years, 7 months and 23 days old.
