    C.F.O Litherland Obituary

    Charles Francis O. litherland, only son of the Late Joseph and Catherine Litherland was born on the Litherland homestead, Nov. 31, 1866, departed this life, Sept. 27, 1925, making his age 58 years, 10 months, and 24 days.

    Some four weeks ago he became ill, taking with a chill, since that time he has been ailing but his condition was not considered serious until the last of the week when on Saturday morning he was taken to Evansville.

    Dr. Long pronounced the main trouble Leukenia [this is how the obit reads] which is an over supply of white corpuscles in the blood, a very rare disease but fatal.

    At the age of 19 he confessed his faith in Christ and was buried with Him in baptism under the ministry of W. R. Couch at Adams Courner.

    About four years ago he united with the Presbyterian church at Wabash.

    He was united in marriage to Lydia C. Leoffler on Nov. 30, 1893 by Rev. Herbert Baldridge. To this union were born four children, Mrs. Ruth Reed of near Patton, Waldo, living on the old home place and Levi and Agnes at home who with four grandchildren, three sisters, Mrs. Simon Cozine, Mrs. W. O. Leek and Mrs. Clyde Shepard and a host of friends left to mourn their loss; his father mother and one sister preceded him in death.

    He was an ardent Sunday school worker having filled the office of president of County Sunday school work. At present he was business manager of the financial work of the Sunday school work. He was a teacher of the men's class of his church.

    For some cause, we know not why, That from our loved ones we must part;

    The Lord knows best, on his rely, He knows what blessing to impart.

    And He prepared for us a place Where pain and sorrow can not come;

    Where we may view his glorious face, When weary toiling here are done.

    A place where faithful meet once more,

    In glad, unbroken bonds of love;

    Forever on that blissful shore, Prepared for us, yes, far above.
