Two children survive him, Harold, eighteen and Theodora, fifteen years of age.
Interment was made today in the Fairfax cemetery, the cemetery which his father helped to establish nearly fifty years ago, and which for many years was an object of his devoted attention. The funeral was held at 10 o'clock this morning at the Osborn home, Rev. Challis of Fairfax officiating.
His two brothers, Charles H., of Lamar, Kansas, and Prof. Herbert, with his wife, of Columbus, Ohio, were present during the last days of his illness, and they, with a niece, Mrs. Chas. Read, of Troy Mills, were present at the funeral.
