Albert Leslie Pumpelly was born in Menear, Tasval County, Ill., June 8, 1870. He died at his home near Wauneta, Friday afternoon, about 3;20 o'clock January 10, 1919, aged 48 years, 7 months, and two days. He came to Kansas from Illinois with his parents at the age of 14 years and located in Marion County, where he grew to manhood. He was married to Lena L. Van Eaton on November 24, 1891. They came from there to Chautauqua County in 1894 where they have resided ever since.
To this union were born three children, Eva, Albert, and Benjamin. Besides a great many relatives and friends, he leaves a wife, daughter, Mrs. Eva Witt, two sons, Albert and Benjamin, three grandchildren, his mother Mrs. B. A. Pumpelly, one sister, Mrs. W. E. Trower and four brothers, L. A. of Cedar Vale; C. A of Augusta, Kansas, and William and Herbert of Sedan.
All the members of the family were ill with the exception of the youngest son and unable to go to the cemetery.
The internment was made in Evergreen cemetery with the Odd Fellows of Wauneta in charge of the services.
The deceased was only ill a short time, death being due to influenza. In the death of Mr. Pumpelly, Chautauqua County loses a good, upright, industrious citizen, and the loss of the husband and father in the home is irreparable. The sympathy of the entire community is extended in their time of trial.
