Cancer Is Fatal To Prominent Man
One of south Iron County's best known and beloved characters died last Friday in the passing of Mr. Chas. Lewis. He had been a sufferer only a comparatively short time from a fatal cancer under his arm. About two months ago he went to the hospital and had the small growth removed. He was never able thereafter to be up very much and gradually grew weaker and the suffering worse as death approached.
Mr. Lewis was a member for about 30 years of the Baptist church at Annapolis and one of its most faithful servants and, as some said, 'pillars.' He was a board member of the newly organized cemetery association and a very interested worker for the short time he got to serve. He had not been an active farmer for the last two or tMree years because of not feeling so well, but had engaged in stock hauling and buying until rather recently.
Mr. Lewis was born on July 12, 1886 and died on January 21 at the age of 57 years, 6 months and 5 days. In 1907, he married Hattie Warncke to which union was born six children. One of these died in infancy. The wife and the remaining children survive. They are Mrs. Irma Mann, Aurlin and Jesslyn, of Annapolis, Otis and Jimmy of St. Louis. There are four grandsons besides a host of other relatives and many, many friends, who are saddened at his passing.
Funeral services were conducted Sunday afternoon at the Union church at 2 p.m. Rev. Seal preached the sermon and Rev. Joe Alcorn assisted in the service. A group of singers from the community sang several hymns. Interment was in the Annapolis cemetery.
