Death of Lawrence (Note from Melba should be spelled Laurence) Winans
A Well Known Resident of Milford Township Dies on Tuesday
The not altogether unexpected death of Mr. Lawrence Winans took place on Tuesday, Feb. 25, at his home two miles east of Deloit, on the old Winans homestead. The deceased was a grandson of Mr. Clark Winans, one of the pioneers of the county. He was the son of Joseph Winans and wife, and born at the old home two miles east of Deloit on August 27, 1875 and so was in his thirty-third year. When but a lad his father was accidentally killed and this put a sorrow in his life. He was married Dec. 24, 1897, to Miss Maggie Hopper and they have a daughter, Jessie.
He leaves to mourn his death this wife and daughter, his mother, four brothers, a sister and many relatives. All were with him when he died. The funeral will be held at the Catholic church in Denison on Thursday at eleven a.m.
The brothers and sister are, Elmer Winans of Lemmon, S. D., Earl, of Bonesteal, S. D., Maurice and Lloyd living near Deloit, and Mrs. Harry Childress of Woolsey, S. D. Lawrence was afflicted with consumption. He was a superior young man, kind, patient, a good son and loving husband and father. He was making arrangements to move to South Dakota this spring, not realizing his true condition. We are sorry indeed to chronicle the death of this excellent citizen
