Obituary- Hause, John

Death of J.A. Hause
J.A. Hause, who came to Rossville from Hoxie last year, died Wednesday morning at his home of dropsy of the heart.

Mr. Hause was 66 years old. He was born in Green county, Ohio, February 20, 1846. When only 18 years of age he enlisted in Company E, 154th Ohio, and remained in the army until the close of the Civil War. He came to Kansas in 1875. Three years later he was married to Miss Elizabeth Anna Miller, and to them ten children were born, eight of whom, with Mrs. Hause, survive him. They are: Oscar Hause of Rossville, K.A. Hause of Westmoreland, Mrs. Emma Burnette of Manhattan, Mrs. Laura Brooks of Lenexa, Mrs. Lizetta Darnell of St. George, and Henry, Walter and Alfred Hause, who are at home.

Mr. Hause pre-empted a homestead near Westmoreland, and later moved to Hoxie, and from there came to Rossville. He was a member of the United Brethren church and of the G.A.R. In every community of which he was a resident he had the respect and friendship of his neighbors. The funeral service was held early Wednesday evening from the home, and conducted by Rev. H.R. Orr. The burial was at Westmoreland.
