SILAS KELLOGG - On Tuesday morning, Silas Kellogg, an old pioneer of this county who has been making his home with his daughter, Mrs. A. G. Eastabrook, quietly passed away. The funeral was held on Wednesday at the Union church, and the remains of the old pioneer deposited beside those of his wife, who has rested in the cemetery at the Union for twenty years of more. Beyond the fact that he came to Elkhorn Grove in the early days of the settlement, half a century ago, we know but little of his life. He was born Oct. 5, 1804, and came here from New York state. We will doubtless be able to secure additional facts concerning his life for a future issue.
