December 19, 1885
The many friends of Geo. H. Booram were grievously shocked to learn of his death which occurred a few days ago in Nebraska. The remains were brought to this place for interment in the Methodist churchyard, arriving Thursday. The dispatch received from his wife, who was too ill to accompany the body of her husband, simply said that death was accidental. His wife, who was Miss Laura Reeder, has the deepest sympathy of her old friends here. Her father, Mr. Allen Reeder, came to attend the funeral, while Mrs. Reeder hastened to the bedside of the stricken wife. The venerable mother of Mr. Booram, whose home is in Shelbyville, was too much stricken by the sad news to attend. The sisters, Mrs. Smith, her husband, and Mrs. W. N. Bullock arrived Wednesday. Services conducted at the Methodist Church by Rev. M. W. Hiner.
