Stephen Pappan Died Tuesday Morning, Funeral Wednesday.
Stephen Pappan, born 1854 at Topeka, Kansas, died at his home near Washunga, Okla., April 8, 1913 at 5:45 a.m. There in the best of health that morning he arose and started to attend to his mornings work, but in a few minutes he returned to the house and informed his daughter, Mrs. Delbert Holland that he would lay down as he felt sleepy.
It was this sleep that his tired eyes closed on earthly scenes in that last long sleep and joined the innumerable one on the other side.
Stephen Pappan was about nineteen years old when he came to the Kaw reservation in 1873 with the balance of the Kaw tribe of Indians. In 1874 he was married at Pawhuska to Miss Alice Norbury to this union six children were born, three of whom, Mrs. Delbert Holland of near Hardy, Mrs. C.H. Penisten of this city and Mrs. D.E.
