Early Settler Dead
Harrison Stuter, one of Delphos' oldest and highly respected citizens an early pioneer of the town, died Wednesday evening at 7:25pm at his home south Franklin street of progressive paralysis after an extended illness.
The death of mr. Stuter, while it brings sorrow to the family and to his circle of friends, was not unexpected. His condition for some weeks past has been very bad and it has been only a question of days when the dread summons would come. A year last May he was stricken by a stroke of paralysis and ever since he has been very feeble. His paralysis was progressive finally resulting in death. Senile gangrene added to his affliction in the latter days of his illness and two toes were amputated in a vain hope to check to check the in roads of that disease. His heart action was too feeble however, and it was clearly understood that the end was not far away.
the funeral will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from. his late residence conducted by Rev. M. Gascoigne of the M.E. Church. Burial will be in West Side cemetery.
Mr. Stuter was born Jan 1, 1834 and was therefore a few days past 62 years and 6 months old. He was the oldest of a family of 9 children. In Oct 1849 he came to Delphos from Pleasantville, Fairfield County and ever since this has made this his home. He was a wagon maker by trade and followed it all his life until the growing infirmities of age caused him to cease work about three years ago. in March 1866 he was married to Miss Eliza Clark of Louisville, KY who survives him. To this union were born four children of whom three are living: Miss May Stuter, Phillip Stuter, of Frankfort, Ind, Edward Stuter, now deceased and Mrs. Ray Rossilet.
