A Veteran Passes Away
__J. R. Anthony, one of the pioneer residents of Cedar Rapids, died Thursday morning at 2:40 o'clock, at his home, 56 Sixteenth avenue, west, at the age of 80 years. Mr. Anthony had been suffering for several weeks of a complication of lumbago and heart trouble. This did not become serious however, until last Saturday, when a turn was taken for the worse and he failed rapidly until the end came. The funeral will be held from the family residence at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
__Mr. Anthony was born in Brookfield, Madison county, New York, Dec. 23, 1820, being the oldest of five children, two of whom survive him.
__In 1847 he was married to Marilla H. Mable, whose noble Christian life, energetic nature and cheery disposition have been an inspiration to him for more than fifty years. Their declining years have been years of unusual happiness, surrounded as they were with loving children and grandchildren, who have availed themselves of every opportunity to keep the cup of happiness in old age full.
__The aged wife to whom the entire community extends its sincerest sympathy at this time, together with seven of the nine children born to the union, were the at the bedside of the deceased when the angel of death bore his spirit on its flight to eternal rest.
__The eldest son, F. A. Anthony of Chicago arrived Wednesday night in to be recognized and receive his father's blessing. the other children who survive him are Mrs. M. M. Hall, Mrs. E. O. Edson, Mrs. J. M. McElheran, Chas. F. Anthony, James Riley Anthony and George A. Anthony all of this city, who have been with him during his last illness.
__He was a member of the G. A. R. having fought valiantly with the Twentieth Iowa volunteers from 1861 to 1865.
__Mr. and Mrs. Anthony were charter members of the First Baptist church of this city, having united with the same in 1860. His character and religious principles have served to develop the highest type of citizenship and fatherhood.
