"Samuel Moredock Dead. - The death of Samuel Moredock, for many years a well known resident of this city, occurred at his home, No. 210 North Silver street, early Sunday morning, May 16th, 1915, as the result of a stroke of paralysis, which he suffered last Friday morning. Mr. Moredock was past eighty years of age, but had not been ill in many years, and was able to do a day's hard work at the time he was stricken.
He was born January 3rd, 1835, in Jefferson, Greene county, Pennsylvania, the son of George and Priscilla Moredock, and the early years of his life were spent in the hills of his native state. January 31st, 1861, he was married to Nancy J. Riggle, in Jefferson, and continued to make his home there until the spring of 1883, when he came West with his family, and located on a farm, near Fontana, in this county.
After five years residence on the farm, Mr. Moredock came to Paola, and had made his home here continuously since.
The deceased was a man of ardently industrious type, coming of sturdy, old Scotch stock, and went about the daily duties of his life with quiet tenacity of purpose typical of that race, in a manner which commanded the respect and admiration of all with whom he dealt. He became a member of the Baptist church when a young man, living a clean, Christian life until the end.
Mr. Moredock is survived by the wife and six children: William Moredock, of Carthage, Mo.; Reed Moredock, of Independence, Missouri; Miss Nannie Moredock, of Trinidad, Colorado; Mrs. Mary Gillogly, of Kansas City, Mo.; Miss Ollie Moredock and Mrs. J. L. Fuller, both of Paola. Two grandchildren, Kenneth Moredock, of Independence, Missouri, and Mrs. Isa Kimler, of Oklahoma City, Okla., and two great grandchildren - Dorothy and Leon Kimler, also survive.
Funeral services were conducted from the home last Tuesday afternoon by Reverend W. M. Hayler, pastor of the First Baptist church, and the body was laid to rest in the Elmwood cemetery."
