W. RICHARDSON DIED IN LANSING, MICH.

Aged Former Resident of This County Passed Away Monday at Home Of His Son. Washington Richardson, whose age would have been 90 years on Dec. 18, died Monday night in Lansing, Mich., where he had made his home for the past four and a half years with his son, M. D. Richardson. He was an old resident of Jasper county, having come here fifty-nine years ago and lived in Walker township for eleven years. He then moved to Michigan, but returned to this county at times to visit his children and for some time just prior to going to his son’s he lived in this city. He is survived by four sons, M. D. Richardson, of Lansing, Mich.; George M. Richardson, of Kingman, Kans.; Thomas J. Richardson and L. O. Richardson, of Oradno, Neb., and one daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Kaub, of Watertown, Wis. His funeral will take place at Pioneer, Mich., and burial made beside his wife and little son, Albert. Another son, William, and two little daughters are buried in the Smith cemetery in Barkley township. Mrs. Kaub went from Watertown to Lansing Tuesday and George M., of Kingman, arrived there today, but the other sons at Orafino, Neb., wired that they could not attend the funeral.

Mr. Richardson will be remembered by many in this county and when he left here that he could not be spared for many years all will learn with regret of his death.
