T. H. WARNER, LABETTE COUNTY PIONEER, DIES
T. H. Warner, a Labette county pioneer, died Friday at his farm, three miles west of Chetopa. He was 72 years of age and is survived by his wife and three sons, Walter Elias, who lives on the farm; Otis Sydney of Bartlesville, Okla., and Joseph Francis of Oklahoma City; a brother, John F. Warner of Sultan, Wash.; three sisters, Mrs. Elmira Gustin of Jamesport, Mo., and Mrs. Rebecca Frazee of Dalesville, Ind., and Mrs. Josephine Constantine of Indianapolis, Ind.
Funeral services were held at the Methodist church in Bartlett Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. W. G. Huffman of Parsons officiating and burial being in Lake Creek cemetery. The Rev. Huffman and Mr. Warner were boyhood chums in Indiana and later were great friends when they met again here in the West.
Mr. Warner was born August 22, 1845, in Delaware county, Indiana. March 19, 1867, he was married to Miss Lucinda Graves at Newcastle, Ind. Besides the children who survive there was born one daughter, who died in infancy. IN the fall of 1869 Mr. Warner and wife and one child drove through from Indiana and settled on a homestead just half a mile south of Bartlett, now the Jim Noble place. The little box house they built as their first home still remains, although a more pretentious building has been erected in front of it. It is one of the oldest landmarks of the county. The family remained on the homestead seven years, selling out then and buying the place where Mr. Warner died.
