Obituary- Silvers, Clarence 1

Death of Clarence Silvers

Clarence Silvers died very suddenly
Saturday, September 19,
While in conversation with Daniel
Wilt in the road in front of
his farm residence two miles
southeast of Rossville. Death
was caused by heart disease.

Mr. Silvers had not been in the
best of health for several weeks.
The news of his death came to
town at 11 o’clock and was a
great shock. Only the day before
he was about town and attended
the fair on the evening before
he passed away. Mr. Silvers
had been a sufferer from the disease
since childhood.

Mr. Silvers was 37 years of age.
He grew to manhood in this vicinity
on the farm where he lived
at that time of his death. After
the death of his father his mother
and brothers moved to Rossville
and he continued on the place.

For several years Mr. Silvers
has been farming considerable
other ground beside the home
place and last year tended nearly
300 acres of rented ground. The
past summer has been a strenuous
one for him and it is likely
the worries and hard work was
too great a strain.

The funeral was held yesterday
at the home. Rev. H. L. Nelson,
of Topeka conducted a short
service after which Topeka
Commandary No. 5, Knights Templar
took charge of the service. The
Workman lodge had charge of the
service at the grave. One of the
greatest turnouts of sympathetic
friends ever seen in Rossville
attended the funeral and followed
the body to its last resting place.

Mr. Silvers is survived by his
widow, his mother, Mrs. E. Silvers,
Frank and Emmett Silvers
and Miss Anna Silvers, of Manard,
Idaho

Card of Thanks

I wish to thank the A. O. U. W.
lodge of Rossville for the
prompt manner in which the
insurance on the life, of my husband
was paid.
