    • EVAN SHRIVER DEAD I
      Evan Shriver, who has lived southeast of Allerton for many years, died last Saturday morning at 1:10 after a long and painful illness of nearly eighteen months duration. The burial was Sunday afternoon at the Rankin cemetery in the presence of a large company of sympathizing friends and relatives.
      The following brief sketch has been prepared for publication:
      Evan Snriver was born in Ohio March, 22nd., 1854, making him, at the time of his death, almost 57 years old. He moved to this country in 1858 with his father, Benjamin Shriver. At that time he was 4 years old. He was a member of a family which numbered six, 5 boys and 1 girl. One boy died in infancy. Those who are still living are: Harvey, Polly, Ellis and Benjamin, all of whom are present. His father settled in a very short time after his coming to this country, on the very place that is now occupied by Harvey. Here his family was raised, but the father died while his family were yet incapable of self-support. Through dint of consistent diligence and intelligent economy, supplemented by the loyal aid of sympathetic relatives and friends, the widowed mother raised the young family. And I might say in passing that this was no small accomplishment at that time, for the country was new, everybody was poor, and conveniences, such as we have today, were entirely lacking, But she raised a family who today stand as a daily tribute to her constancy and devotion to them, and I am proud to say now that her family is accounted among the most splendid citizenship of our county.
      At his majority our deceased friend, husband and father, Evan, settled on the place he has ever since occupied. He married a splendid young lady whose name was Richardson), daughter of Mr Jas Richardson of this county but who is long since deceased. Here Evan has raised his family and raised them well, they are all industrious, respectable and self-supporting citizens, who like their father, have the absolute un-alloyed respect of every adult or child who has had the pleasure of knowing them.
      Now as to the personality of our dead brother and friend whose speechless form now lies before us. I realize that no words of mine are adequate to the task of picturing him to this sympathetic assembly, which has gathered to offer him the last sad tribute of our mingled respect. He is dead and has paid a debt that we all owe for ourselves and must pay sooner or later. But I am glad to feel the privilege, like everyone present, of declaring my pleasure of having enjoyed his acquaintance and friendship, for he was a pleasant acquaintance and a very true friend. And while he was indeed a true friend, a splendid neighbor and fellow citizen, he has gone and we must all bow our leads to solemn sorrow at this an irresistible decree of fate.
