DIED
BARTHOLOMEW--Lying in the snow near the spur track at Schroeder's mill, J.E. Bartholomew was found dead by his sons, Gus and Harry, about 8 o'clock Sunday evening. Death evidently occurred just as they reached his side. He had left home earlier in the evening intending to be back in a few mintues. When he failed to return, members of the family became worried and the two sons set out to find him, following a path through the snow past the mill which he was wont to travel. Their first impression when they discovered the body was that he had met with foul play, as there was a scratch across one temple. A call was sent in for the night police and Coroner Henry Gass. After an examination the latter decided that Mr. Bartholomew had suffered a stroke of appoplexy and had received the scratch when he fell. It was known that he had been afflicted with heart trouble for some time. Coroner Gass removed the body to the morgue and announced that no inquest would be held.
Johial Bartholomew was born in Wayne county, Iowa, February 9, 1857. He came to Nebraska in 1871 when he was 14 years of age and spent the remainder of his life in and around Columbus. On August 2, 1873, he married Caroline Lockner. Eleven children were born to them, of whom four died in infancy. The seven, who, with their mother, survive him, are Gus Bartholomew, of Columbus; Mrs. Dollie Vanhoosen, of Omaha; Mrs. Rosa Brandt, of Shelby; Harry, Arthur, Lloyd and Sadie Bartholomew, all of Columbus. He leaves also two brothers, Isaac, of North Platte, and Charles, of Silver Creek, and one sister, Mrs. Clarinda Platz, of Central City. Mr. Bartholomew was a stationary engineer.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Harry F. Huntington, pastor of the Methodist church, at the Henry Gass & Co. chapel Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Burial was made in Columbus cemetery.
