Source: Crawfordsville Journal, Thursday, September 24, 1908
Washington Osborne died Sunday afternoon, the 13th, at his home 512 Bluff street, at 6:30 o'clock, of complication of diseases. Mr. Osborn was sick almost a year, and for the last three months was not able to leave his bed. But through it all, he bore his sufferings patiently, nor did he forget that there was a higher power for him to look to, for daily he asked for that devine help. Washington Osborne was born in March, the 2, 1840, in Union county, near Brownsville, Ind., and was a member at Co. H, Thirteenth Indiana Infantry in the civil war. He leaves a wife and eight children, James and Charles, Mrs. Leola Westfall and Mrs. Maggie Borest, of this city, Frank and Mrs. Lizzie Beard, of Danville., Ill., and Mrs. Ida Reeder of Oakwood. He leaves amother, Mrs. Lizzie Vangordor, of Ladoga, also four brothers, John and George of this city; Jackson, of Danville, Ill., Jasper of Terre Haute, three sisters, Mrs. Anna Reeder, Mis Mary Boraker, Mrs, Minnie Coombs of this city, and many relatives and friends to mourn their loss. But their loss is his gain, nor have they not the blessed assurance that he heard the glad words, well done, enter into the joys that are prepared for thee.
