HON. L D. DUNN DIED MONDAY EVE

Aged Citizen of Northern Jasper County Passed Away at Advanced Age of 90 Tears. » Hon.-Isaac D. Dunn, aged 90 years, 6 months and 4 days, died at 7:20 o’clock Monday evening at his home ’in Kankakee townslhip, a short dis tance northwest of Tefft. His last days witnessed a quite rapid decline and those about him realized that the end of his long and useful life was near at hand. He remained conscious to the very last, asking during the day he died to be given an opportunity to see some of his closest friends. When the last moment came he was talking with his son, George N. Dunn, who had come from Witchita, Kans., a week before. Mr. Dunn was a pioneer of the northern part of Jasper county, having been a resident of Kankakee township since about 1865. He ■had witnessed a great transformation in the lands along the Kankakee river and had a large acreage of fertile farm land on which he had resided for a long time. Mr. Dunn was a native of Cumberland county, Maine, and was an educated gentleman who kept abreast of the times and took a keen interest in ail maitters affecting the welfare of the government and tate. He was a republican and served a term in the lower house of the state legislature, having been elected in the fall of 1886. He was tall and erect in stature and wore a beard. In facial appearance he bore close resemblance to James G. Blaine, of whom he was a great admirer. Mr. Dunn’s activity in the development of northern Jasper county covered long years of his Ufa and he was very proud of the result and spoke with great pride of Kankakee township. His farm land extended to the Kankakee river at one of the prettiest spots along that stream. Five years ago he established Dunn’s Pleasure Resort, selling a number of lots for the building of cottages and dub houses. He spent considerable time at the site of the park in the summer months and had hopes of building up an important resort there. Mr. Dunn made frequent visits to this city until recent years and even within the past few years has frequently been here, once only a few months ago. His hearing and eyesight failed considerably during the past two or three years and this annoyed him a great deal, for he longed to read the papers and to discuss current topics with his friends. Mr. Dunn leaves three children, viz. John and George Dunn, of Wichita, Kans., and Mrs. Samuel Seegrist, who with her husband resided in the Dunn home. Mrs. Dunn, also of advanced age, survives. The funeral will take place Thursday morning at 10 o’clock at the late residence and burial will be made in the Wheatfield cemetery. It is probable that a number of his old friends will go from here to attend the funeral. A more complete sketch of his life will prove very interesting and will be published at a later time if the notes can be procured.
