THOMAS N. BRAXTAN DEAD
Thomas N. Braxtan, one of the pioneers of Orange county, died at his home in Paoli last Thursday at the advanced age of eighty-four years. He is survived by a widow and seven children, Robert, Frank, Samuel, Edward and Miss Cora Braxtan, of Paoli, Mrs. Emma Brown, of Denver, Colo., and Dr. Thomas Braxtan of Loogootee. He was seized with paralysis about a year ago, but had recovered sufficiently to be able to go about without discomfort until a few weeks ago, when he had another attack, which ended in his death.
Mr. Braxtan was born in Paoli, and said to be the oldest native born citizen of this county, and has been prominently identified with the business interests of the county ever since he became of age. He was extensively engaged in merchandising, farming and stock dealing, and was quite wealthy, having recently sold one of his farms for $30,000. Back in the 80's and early 90's he was one of the best known stock dealers in the New Orleans market, having shipped thousands of horses and mules and other livestock to that southern market. Until a few years ago he took a great interest in politics, and in 1882 was the Republican nominee for Congress, when Orange county was in the Second Congressional district. He was a man of dauntless courage, rugged honesty and unswerving fidelity to his friends. A common expression among those who knew him best, "We have known him long and well, and we only knew him to esteem him more highly as the years passed by." In his home circle he was a kind and indulgent husband and father, whose advice was always sought and heeded. The funeral occured Saturday at two o'clock and was one of the largest attended ever witnessed in Paoli.

ATTIE MILLIS TAGGART
Attie Blanche Millis was born February 14, 1871, at the old Millis homestead in Paoli township. She was the daughter of James and Mariah VanTress Millis, and a granddaughter of Nicholson Millis, who was one of Orange county's sturdy pioneers.
Her father was a soldier in the war of the Rebellion, and received a gun shot wound in the lungs, which superinduced tuberculosis, from which he died. The mother waiting on him and watching at his bedside contracted the same disease, and shortly followed her husband, leaving a family of young children.
She attended the Orleans high school and was a student at the State University at Bloomington, where she joined the Methodist Episcopal church.
She was married May 12, 1896, to John Taggart, and subsequently placed her letter in the Presbyterian church at Orleans, the home church of her husband.
For eleven years this happy couple have gone in and out among us, attending the duties of home life, of church work, of social functions and official service--faithful in all.
But it was in the quiet of the home, where this woman reigned a queen and portrayed the grandeur of her character, that those who were favored with her acquaintance learned to know the true worth of the modest, retiring, helpful and lovable soul that has gone from us to her reward. These two were childless; but she loved children, and gave to her sisters own an affection so akin to a mother's love, that had the little ones been themselves bereft, they never would have known.
Long before the summons came she resignedly looked Death in the face and patiently bore her sufferings. She lived to make those about her happier and better. She did not live in vain.
There are lonesome hearts in the circles that called her kin or friend. They will be lonesome still. Out of the memories of the past decade there will come pleasant recollections of friendly associations of delightful companionship, of a faithful compact and of love.
And the hearts will be lonesome still.

JOHN W. WOODSON
John W. Woodson was born May 13, 1879, in Adair county, Kentucky. He resided in that state until seventeen years of age. He then went south, living for some years in Atlanta and Birmingham. Afterward he was in business for one year in the city of Louisville. For the past three years and some months he has been a resident of Orange county, Indiana.
He was married Dec. 25, 1901, to Miss Mary Ritter, of Orleans. To them one child, Little Margaret, was given.
On Dec. 8, last, he was stricken with the malady which ended his earthly life in the early morning of Jan. 18, 1906. Wife and babe, mother and one sister, four brothers, and a host of friends survive our departed brother. None knew him but was his friend.
He was honorable in business, a good neighbor, a devoted son and brother, a perfect husband and father. His was a quiet, unassuming, genuine, goodness of heart and life. It is natural that such a man should have a confiding and saving faith in the loving Father of us all. Such a faith was often expressed in the early part of his last illness.
"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord."

MRS. MATTIE TAGGART MILLIS
Mrs. Mattie Taggart Millis died suddenly of heart disease at her home last evening about six o'clock. She had been visiting in the neighborhood during the day and her death came without warning, although it was known that her heart was badly affected. She was highly respected, and numbered her friends by her acquaintances. Her husband is a prominent farmer and respected citizen, living south of town. She was a daughter of the late Hamilton Taggart. The husband, brothers and sisters have the sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement.

MRS. MATTIE TAGGART MILLIS
Mrs. Mattie Taggart Millis departed this life the 21st day of march. She was the wife of Harry Millis and had been married about three years. She had been to one of the neighbors to spend the afternoon. Liddle did Harry think that his wife would be taken away so soon. She was a member of the Church of Christ and she was a good christian lady and was loved by all who knew her. She leaves a husband, three brothers and two sisters, who will miss her very much. Her father, mother and sister died a short time ago. They went home to rest where no sorrow nor suffering is known. God thought best to take Mattie home to live with them, but still we will miss her in the vicinity. Her death was a sudden blow to her husband, sisters and brothers and many friends. But as the time flies by we must prepare to meet her in a brighter and better home than this. The funeral was preached at the home, and beautiful florals were received. The remains were taken to Orleans for interment, where the body will await the resurrection morning.
Sad ones grieve not but cease thy weeping.
For by heaven's decree Mattie is sleeping.
Her pillow, fond sisters, is not the cold sod.
For she rests in the arms and bosom of God.

MARTHA TAGGART MILLIS
Martha Taggart Millis, daughter of Hamilton and Margaret Taggart was born at the old homestead near Orleans, March 15, 1869, and died March 21, 1906. At the age of seventeen she united with the Presbyterian Church at Orleans, and continued until death a faithful member.
She was united in marriage January 15, 1903, to J.H. Millis, who survives her. Her parents were of the pioneers of Orange county. They were of the plain forceful masters of the fireside, who taught right living, and illustrated it in their own conduct.
She was not born to inherit riches; but she did inherit ancestral traits that endeared her to every one who knew her. In a household noteworthy for its good cheer, where every member vied each with the other to make the visitor or sojourner happy, she was the constant star, sparkling and brilliant, full of wit and humor, giving to others what she herself abundantly possessed, happiness.
Amid tranquil and gentle scenes in a peaceful vale, she had her brief, but successful life--for who shall say, however short the span, that a being who generates and dispenses the sunshine of good cheer, has lived in vain?
The shaft of death has been hurled into this family of late with fearful frequency. Sisters, and father and a mother, and now this one, suddenly dead with scarce a warning, all gone, into the Silent Land.
In the beautiful but cold religion of the Ancients, they sculptured Sleep and his twin brother Death as children reposing in the arms of night.
May we of of a stronger faith not shear ourselves of the monstrous emblems of death? May we not believe with Virginaud that: "Death is but the greatest act of life, since it gives birth to a higher state of existance. Were it not thus, there would be something greater than God." Let us believe that this happy loving soul has gone, not into eternal sleep; but into a realm of sunshine and good cheer. That as she made happy the lives of many here, she will be, with those gone before, herself, happy forever.

DEATH OF YOUNG LADY STUDENT
Miss Anna Rue Conder, of Orleans, a well-known young lady student at DePauw University, died at eleven o'clock last night at the home of her aunt, Mrs. Margaret C. Rice, Indiana avenue, of tubercular meningitis.

She began to improve after arriving here and her condition was not considered serious until the first of this week. She was 23 years old and was born at Orleans.

The body was shipped to Orleans at 3:30 this afternoon, from where the funeral will be held to-morrow.

JOHN O. ELROD
John O. Elrod died last Thursday morning at 11:15 of a complication of diseases indigent to old age, after an illness of several weeks. He was 73 years old and for some weeks had been in the care of a physician.
Mr. Elrod was one of the best known farmers in our township. He was a veteran of the civil war and served his country faithfully and with honor and credit to himself. He was county commissioner for several years and proved himself a capable and efficient officer. He leaves a wife and four children to mourn the death of a kind and indulgent father. The children are Charles Elrod, of Minneola, Kan; Mrs. W.V. Ritter, of French Lick; Mrs. Alvis Wells, of Paoli, and Mrs. Will Stout of Hammond, and all were present at the funeral.
He was an honored and worthy member of the I.O.O.F. and the G.A.R. both of which orders officiated at the funeral. He was a man of sterling integrity, doing right as he saw it and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him.
The funeral services were held at the family residence last Friday at 2:30 p.m., conducted by Rev. Jeffrey and the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Old Union, near the home where he had lived for many years. A large concourse of people were present to pay the last tribute of respect to one who had long been their friend and neighbor and as the flower laden casket was lowered into the grave, the thought that a good man had gone to his reward was uppermost in every mind. The sympathy of an entire community goes out to the grief stricken widow and the fatherless children, but they sorrow not as those who have no hope for they know that he has gone to his reward.
Ibid, 18 Oct 1906, Pg. 4, Col. 5
JOHN OLIVER ELROD
The mortal remains of John O. Elrod were consigned to mother earth at Union, Friday, Oct 5, Rev. Jeffrey, of the Orleans M.E. Church, delivering the funeral oration, his comrades of the G.A.R. acting as pall bearers and Orange Lodge No. 113 I.O.O.F. rendering the beautiful service of the order at the open grave. A very large number of sorrowing relatives, friends and neighbors assembled to pay their tender tributes of respect and drop a tear of sympathy with the bereft family.
He was born to the community in which he lived, wrought and died, the eighth child of John and Nancy (Millis) Elrod and first saw the llight of day on the morning of May 29, 1833, died Oct. 4, 1906, aged 73 years, 5 months and 5 days.
August 13, 1857, he was united in marriage with Sarah, daughter of Jonathan and Mary (Henley) Braxtan and to them six children were born; Charles H., now a prominent farmer and stock raiser and candidate for County Treasurer of Clark county, Kansas; Kittie E., wife of Wm. V. Ritter, of French Lick Springs; Anna S., wife of Alvis M. Wells, Recorder of Orange County and Lizzie B. wife of Will A. Stout, of Hammond, Ind. John E. and Mary F. died in infancy.
The mother of his children preceeded him to the better land by more than thirty years and thirteen years ago he was married to Mrs. Sarah Isom, of Lawrence county, a most estimable christian lady and devoted wife who, together with the one son and three daughters, survive him. Though the most provident of husbands, taking the most solicitious care of his helpmates, he was unfortunate in that he buried three wives but exceedingly fortunate was he in being blest with the companionship of such noble christian women. His second wife was Mrs. Laswell, who did not long survive their marriage, in 1879. His third companion was taken Nov 29, 1883, and was Mrs. Jane Hostetler, a most lovable woman, with whom he lived eight years when she was called to her reward.
When the dark days of the rebellion came he enlisted in Co G. 66th Ind. Vols and did valiant service for his country in her time of sore need. He was so good a soldier that he had a poor hospital record and consequently had never received a just recompense of reward from the Government he had so faithfully served.
In 1877 he was happily converted and united with the M.E. Church at Wesley Chapel, where he worshiped through all the years, a true, contrite chri stian gentleman, serving as Sunday School Superintendent, Class Leader and Trustee. For years and years he was the Treasurer of the Board of Trustees of that church and never failed or faltered in any capacity. Many and many a time the writer has heard him say, "I want to do all the good I can in this world and as little harm." He has as large a measure of good to his credit, and as little error as it has ever been our fortune to know with any man.
For thirty-six years he was a member of Orange Lodge No. 113 I.O.O.F. of Orangeville, and no man ever lived closer to the binding obligations or ob-served more religiously the sacred tenets of that splendid order.
Not alone in his home, church, lodge and neighborhood life was he the man worthy of all emulation but in his public and political career, long and active though it was, as Trustee of Orleans township and as County Commissioner for the county of Orange, he endeared himself to all the people of all parties by his strict integrity, exact justice, broad, liberal and progressive views in matters of the common welfare, until nothing but warmest praise and highest enconiums can be said of him. It is impossible that any taint or direlection should attach itself to one with as much inbed integrity and inborn honesty.
But mere words of praise, so feebly expressed, cannot correctly convey to the one who has never been favored as the writer has been blessed, with an intimate and confidential acquaintance with the deceased--no words I can say, can convey a knowledge of his inner manhood, his strict integrity, his broad conceptions and deep convictions, his love of truth and right and justice, his slowness to speak evil and his haste to do good. He was the personification of truth, the embodiment of sincerity and a noble exemplar of christian integrity. No eulogy can be too high, for he was the capsheaf of Gods creation--an honest, christian gentlema
His was a gracious, serviceable christian life, a benediction to many. He leaves a void which will be hard to fill but a memory full of sweetness.

JAMES SHERROD
James Sherrod, who formerly lived at West Baden, died last week in Colorado, and his remains were shipped to Paoli. They arrived there Tuesday and were interred in the family burying ground Tuesday evening. Jim as he was familiarly called, was the son of Dr. W.F. Sherrod, of West Baden, and was about 32 years old. He had been badly crippled from his youth, but had learned telegraphy and was for a long time employed by the Monon at west Baden. he was universally liked by all who knew him, and his death cast a gloom over the town, where he was raised. His wife died about two years ago and Jim went to Colorado to seek employment and better his health. He found employment but his health failed. A short time ago he came back on a visit to his old home but only remained a few days. Despite the inclement weather a large number of his friends followed his remains to their last resting place, and paid a tribute of respect to the poor fellow whose life, though harassed by troubles was made pleasant by many kindly acts.

The remains of Mrs. Maude Sherrod Dorville, 65, for many years a citizen of Paoli were brought here Friday morning for burial from the medical department at Indiana University, Bloomington. Upon Mrs. Dorville's death, December 22, 1937. at Woodmere Insane Hospital at Evansville, funds seemingly were not available for her burial and her body was shipped to Indiana University December 23, for use in the medical school. Bodies that are sent to the school are kept for six months before they are used. Seven months had elasped since Mrs. Dorville's body had been expressed to Bloomington and probably the only reason the body had not been used was because of her weight, medics preferring to use smaller bodies.
Mrs. Sherrod resided in Evansville to be near her daughter, for several years prior to her own death, and while there became acquainted with a Mrs. Osborne who was in some way related to the Sherrod family. Mrs. Osborne frequently had Mrs. Dorville in her home and was kind to her in many ways. Returning to Evansville last week after an absence of several months, Mrs. Osborne inquired about Mrs. Dorville and was told she was alright. Later, going to the hospital to take her gifts, Mrs. Osborne was informed of Mrs. Dorville's death in December and of the disposal of her body. She at once got in communication with A.C. Sroelich, official in the Citizens Bank and Trust Company, Evansville, and guardian of Mrs. Dorville's estate (left from the railroad insurance of her late husband) who claimed he had never been informed of her death. It was later found that he had made his May report to the court as required by law, although she had been dead since December.
Ellis and Sons undertakers here were notified to bring the body from Bloomington and properly inter it in the family lot, but upon reaching Bloomington, were required to deposit $30 with the medical center before the body could be released.
Services were conducted from the Ellis Funeral Home Friday in charge of Rev. Theron Castleman. Burial took place in the old Paoli Cemetery.
Mrs. Dorville was born in Orange County, the daughter of the late Dr. James and Margaret Scott Sherrod and had been in the hospital at Evansville for about 20 years.
She was quite talented in music having been graduated from that department in St. Mary's of the Woods, Terre Haute, and for many years was court stenographer in the Orange and Washington County Circuit Courts. Her father was a prominent physician and druggest in Orange County and occupied the building where the present Public Welfare Office is now located.
Her only survivor is an uncle, Thomas Scott, of the Sandy Hook neighborhood, the only rewmaining Civil War veteran in Paoli Township.
