JAMES L. KYLE

From the Manitowoc Herald, 24 Jun 1854:
James L. Kyle (attorney) died, brother of D.W. Kyle.

JAMES KYLE-add on

In this Village, on Monday last, after a painful illness of five weeks, Hon. James L. Kyle, aged 29.
Our village has been covered with a gloomy pall of funeral sadness by the announcement of the death of one of our most esteemed and distinguished fellow citizens. The insatiate hand of Death has taken from our midst one whose noble, generous and endearing qualities, won for him the respect and esteem of all. Possessed of honorable principles and sterling integrity combined with talents of the highest order the urbanity of his manners, cheerful and ever bouyant spirits ever made him a welcome addition to his circle of associates, most of whom mourn the loss of a sincere and kind-hearted friend. Generous to a fault his principal delight seemed to consist in securing the happiness of others, and if he was quick to resent a supposed injury, none was more ready to acknowledge an unintentional wrong to others or to appreciate a friendly act of courtesy and many of this village can attest to the ready sympathy with the woes of others, which led him to devote many a weary hour at the side of the sick couch, where his efforts to relieve distress was unceasing.
If he had faults the grave will cover them but his noble qualities will endure when the marble tablet shall have changed to dust.
Mr. Kyle was identified with the early history of Manitowoc, has filled some important offices here, represented the county in the Legislature at its last session and was District Attorney at the time of his death. In the legal profession, he had few equals and he was a universal favorite with other members of the Bar.
It will doubtless be gratifying to his relatives abroad to know that he received these attentions from all which his case demanded and foremost among them were the members of the I.O. Of O.F., in which Order ? was P.G. Death's hand administered to his comfort, and when all was over, prepared the winding sheet and laid in the silent tomb all that was left of a man and a brother.
The impressive burial service of the Protestant Episcopal Church was read by Rev. Geo. Thompson, Rector of St. James Parish, who also performed the services prescribed by the Regulations of the Order.
No weeping relatives were there to shed their tears upon his coffin lid, but the darkness of sorrowing gloom rested upon the countenances of those who had listened with rapt attention to the eloquent tones of his voice when presiding over the mystic rites or swelling in debates and the hearing of more than one manly bosom attested the sincerity of grief for the loss of one who was ever foremost in illustrating by his deeds the pure principles of Odd Fellows.
