W.H. Calhoun’s Death-William H. Calhoun died suddenly at his home on Madison street, Monday evening, September 9, 1901 at 10:30 o’clock. The deceased had been a resident of this city but a few weeks, coming here from Cambridge. About four o’clock in the afternoon he suffered from a stroke of paralysis and died that evening, the immediate cause of his death being hemorrhage of the brain. Mr. Calhoun was born in 1835 near New York City. He moved to Niles, Michigan, where he was married to Margaret S. Emmons, in 1860. They moved to Adair county, Iowa where they lived 30 years. Two years ago they moved to Cambridge and from there to this city. A wife and five children, two sons, and three daughters survive him, all of whom live here, except one daughter, Mrs. M.A. Jackson, of Greenfield, Iowa, who came Wednesday to attend the funeral services. He was a member of the Methodist church and a consistent Christian. The funeral services were held at the house Wednesday afternoon, Rev. W.J. Turner officiating, and his remains interred in Riverview cemetery. The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the family in their sorrow. Friday 13 September 1901 McCook Republican
