Obituary of E. L. Morse

E.L. Morse, the oldest resident of the immediate visinity of Westmoreland, died at this home, October 17, 1924. He had been in feeble health for some years, but was only confined to his house for a few weeks.
E. L. Morse was born in Williamsfield, OH, November 12, and was therefore 88 years, 11 months and 5 days old. He grew to manhood in Ohio, recieving his education in the common schools of Ohio. He was married July 15, 1860 to Miss Hattie Netterfield at Colebrook, Ohio. To this union were born three children Laura, Bell and Archie. Archie died January 5, 1903. The family moved to Kansas in 1870, settling on a homestead one and one-half miles south of Fostoria. Mrs. Morse died in the fall of 1871. He married Marinda C. Heath on March 9, 1873, at Richmond Center, Ohio. To this union were born two daughters, Juna L. and Frances Joy. They moved to Westmoreland and to the present home March 5, 1897. The second Mrs. Morse died March 17, 1914. Since that time he has lived at the old home with Frances Joy. He is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Laura Mills, Mrs. Bell Baldwin, and Frances Joy, all of Westmoreland. Juna L. died in 1874. He is also survived by 12 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren and one great great grandchild, of whom he was very proud. Also one sister, Mrs Martha F. Webster, of Ayshire, Iowa, who is the only surviver of a family of eleven children.
He was a member of the Baptist church for about sixty years. He served during the last year of the Civil War as a member of Co. K, 177th Ohio Volunteers. He always took an active interest in the welfare of the community. He was a great lover of music and taught singing school in the early days. All that medical skill and loving, aching hearts could do was done to relieve the terrible agony of the last days, but at last he fell quietly to sleep in Jesus. Many friends mourn his loss.
Funeral services were conducted from the family home Sunday October 19, at 3 p.m., and were conducted by Rev. T. W. Henshaw of Lyons, his former pastor. The pallbearers were the grandchildren of the deceased. Interment was made in the Westmoreland cemetery.
