    JONES ANDERSON DEAD
    Funeral services were held in the Rossville Presbyterian church this afternoon at 2 o’clock, conducted by the pastor Rev. Apel, assisted by Rev Inward, colored minister from Topeka. The body was interred in the Rossville cemetery.

    Mr. Anderson died Monday night at his farm home northwest of Grove following a week’s illness. He was one of the most thrifty of Shawnee county’s colored citizens and owned his own farm. He moved to the farm where he died, about twenty-two years ago. Prior to that the family had resided in Rossville for many years.

    He was a native of Kentucky where he was born December 11, 1868. When he was four years old his parents moved to Nashville, Tenn. and 11 years later they came to Topeka.

    He was married to Elizabeth House, August 8, 1890 and to this union 11 children were born.

    Besides the widow he is survived by three sons, Frank, Arthur and Clarence of the home address and six daughters. Two sisters also survive Mrs. Ben Hutchinson, St. Joe, Mo., and Mrs. Maggie Butler, Topeka and four brothers, Mack Anderson, Lawrence, Richard and Jim of St. Joseph Mo., George of Chicago.

    Mr. Anderson joined the Baptist church when 15 years old and remained in that faith.
