OBITUARY - After an illness of six months duration Mr. Edmund Apsey passed away from life at 5 o`clock p.m. Saturday, Sept. 6, at him home in Lincoln, at the age of 76 years. His trouble was of a dropsical nature subject to old age causing intense suffering from which death seemed a welcome relief. We will long miss him from our midst as an honest, inoffensive and law abiding citizen. His kindness to young and old, and general uprightness of character will long be remembered by his many friends. Mr. Apsey was born in England in 1826 and was married in 1845 to Hannah Harris. They removed to America in 1846 and in 1889 came to Lincoln where he erected a saw mill and purchased a farm. His remains were interned in a pleasant spot on his own farm according to his expressed wish. He desired no ceremony other than that Mr. E. Goheen might speak a few words at his burial. His wishes were respected and Mr. Goheen in well chosen and appropriate remarks dwelt on the life and character of the deceased. His aged wife, six sons and two daughters remain to mourn the husband and father.
